"The Young Decadent. After the Ball," Ramon Casas, 1899.
This young lady seems a bit tired, but look closer. She's reading a book with a yellow cover, a sort of code that it's by a Decadent or sinful author. The Yellow Book was a periodical that featured Decadent writing. Yellow became associated with pulpy or extreme writing; in Italy there's a whole genre of slasher films called "giallo" or "yellow" with the same association.
From the Museum of Monserrat, Spain.
Leafing through Brassai's book of photographs of artists, just came across this great 1955 photo of Joan Miro at the Barcelona Maritime Museum.
The wooden pully blocks arranged on the wall look like they could be a Miro painting.... great photo
