Publisher's Synopsis

The Further Memoirs Of Marie Bashkirtseff is a book written by Marie Bashkirtseff, a Ukrainian-born French artist and writer. The book was published in 1901 and contains a collection of her personal memoirs, as well as a correspondence between Bashkirtseff and Guy De Maupassant, a French writer and literary figure.The memoirs in this book provide a glimpse into the life of Bashkirtseff, who was known for her artistic talent and her unconventional views on society and gender roles. She writes about her struggles as a young woman trying to make it in the male-dominated art world, her relationships with friends and family, and her thoughts on various social and political issues of the time.The correspondence between Bashkirtseff and De Maupassant is also included in this book, offering a unique insight into the friendship and intellectual exchange between these two prominent figures of the late 19th century French literary scene. The letters reveal a deep admiration and respect between the two, as well as their shared interest in literature, art, and philosophy.Overall, The Further Memoirs Of Marie Bashkirtseff is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the life and works of this remarkable artist and writer, as well as for those interested in the cultural and intellectual history of late 19th century France.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
