Abstract (en)

The reviewer remains unconvinced of the author's interpretations of impressionist and late 19th c. French depictions of women who may have been intended to represent prostitutes. Sees the author's reconstruction of male artists' intentions as reductive, and her account of the "absent subjectivities of the depicted women" as lacking in theoretical grounding.
