Dire qu'Arsionoé n'était pas contente d'être portraiturée... 1844. Creator: Honore Daumier

Dire qu'Arsionoe n'etait pas contente d'etre portraituree... 1844. Man with feather duster looking at bust (of his wife?) crowned with laurel wreath: As if it weren't enough for Arsinoe to have her portrait done'. Satirical criticism of bluestockings': women with interests beyond housework and childcare. Female authors were often depicted as mannish and ugly - the implication being that their intellectual output was just as objectionable as their looks. From Les Bas-bleus, no. 12
