Final Major Project: Initial Research


My starting point for my final major project was the late Italian eccentric socialite Marchesa Casati (1881-1957). She was at one point Europes most notorious celebrity and was painted, photographed and served as a muse by some of the world's most influencial artists.

"I want to be a living work of art" - Marchesa Casati.

Such artists included Man Ray, Giovanni Boldini, Cecil Beaton, Fortunato Depero and Augustus John.
