Opis

The Dictionary of Artists' Models aims to be an extensive reference work to identify and contextualize the lives and art history of individual artist's models. Another aim is to provide a much-needed body of research that can serve both as a reference tool and also as a springboard for further investigation of this frequently neglected subject.
