The Queen of Bohemia

Portraits of Welsh writer and artist Nina Hamnett, known for larger than life personality and her many love affairs with both men and women in the artist community. She drank heavily and once danced nude on a Montparnasse café table just for the "hell of it".

In 1932 Hamnett published Laughing Torso, a tale of her bohemian life, and 23 years later released a follow-up book titled Is She a Lady?.

During the last years of her life she spent a good deal of time drinking. She died at age 66 after a fall from a window. It is not known whether it was accidental or a suicide.

These are Portraits of Nina Hamnett:

1) Roger Fry, 1917
2) Roger Fry, 1917
3) Adrian Flowers, 1955
4) Amadeo Modigliani, 1914
