"Femme Blue a la Guitare"

Of all the artists pursuing the style "Arts Decoratifs", one of the most memorable was Tamara de Lempicka. By age 14 she was attending school in Lausanne, Switzerland. Tamara vacationed in St. Petersburg with her Aunt Stephanie, whose millionaire banker husband had their home decorated by the famous French firm Maison Jansen.  All this high living gave the young girl an idea of how she wanted to live and what her future should be. Her art, from 1918 to 1980 is collected the world over.
