This is the 1900 painting studio class at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris.

  1. I know that in those days no respectable lady would participate in such a class. I notice that a majority of the students seem to be "posing" for the camera rather than paying attention to the model and their painting. I guess being photographed back then was unusual enough to be a distraction.

  2. Delightful. One of those "time machine" photographs. I wish I was there..

  3. Had I been there at the time, I believe that I probably would have kept my eyes on the model.
