Marie Laurencin was a painter, etcher, lithographer, illustrator, and decorative artist of the Parisian avant-garde in the early twentieth century. She is most widely known for her affiliations with artistic and literary figures of the Cubist and Dadaist movements. Her paintings are noted for their soft portrayal of feminine subjects, including a series of self-portraits.
