Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sapho; Parisian Manners "Twenty-one." "Artist?" "No, madame." "Ah, so much the better." These scraps of sentences, almost unintelligible amid the exclamations, the laughter, and the dance-music of a fancy ball, were exchanged - one night in June - between a pifferaro and a Fellah woman, in the conservatory, filled with palms and tree ferns, which formed the background of Déchelette´s studio. To the pressing questions of the Egyptian woman the pifferaro replied with the ingenuousness of youth, and with the freshness and vivacity of a Southerner who has been long silent. A stranger in that crowd of painters and sculptors, lost since his entrance to the ball-room by the friend who had brought him thither, he had been wandering listlessly around for two hours, displaying his handsome fair face browned by the sun, his hair in curls as close and short as his sheep-skin costume, while a murmur of admiration, of which he scarcely seemed conscious, arose around him as he proceeded.
