When I first started looking at Tamara de Lempicka's work, I thought I wouldn't love it - too uber cool, too posterish, too focused on fashion.
But she had something special, didn't she? Her models had something very seductive; her images may have reflected, on the canvas, the dramatic events she lived in her own life.
I offer Art Deco tours and there is one hotel in South Beach that has a mosaic of this painting on their ceiling. It was hidden for many years until last owner uncovered it during renovations. Love her clean, elegant Art Deco STyle! Christine www.artdecotours.com
Oh YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM YUM!

Maybe Gaga does draw inspiration from her.
