Things we should expand upon to make this article not a stub:

Rumors of drunken decline (which are apparently, not true, or partially true, re: Lipton's research.)

The history of Meurent scholarship, re: Tabarant, Meurent as feminist and lesbian icon.

The GLBQT reference mentions that one of her paintings did surface at auction recently, in 2004. If anyone could find out more about that, this would be a very valued contribution. I've also seen reference to pornographic photos that Delacroix had of her in his possession. If anyone else could discover more about that also, it would be good.

Glad to see other people working on the article. Editing to add that the painting from 2004 is hanging in the Columbes History Museum according to personal correspondence.Skywaterblue (talk) 07:39, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
