I spent much time putting on my make up and fixing my hair in an up-do with pearl and crystal studded hair clips. Then I slipped into a formal strapless ball gown with elbow length satin gloves and wrapped my shoulders in a delicate organza.
When I was finished getting ready, I stood in front of the mirror and stared at myself. I could see flaws but I still looked pretty. I desperately wanted him to see me this way.
At two in the morning, I decided that he shall indeed and uncovered my tripod.
John Sargent, Madame X (Madame Pierre Gautreau), 1883-1884
