Wow wow wow. Came to your post through notes and am completely blown away. It's a crime that this artist's work is not more widely known. F**K Magritte.

That was amazing, Giselle! How has Fini been “lost” or forgotten about for so long? Thanks for sharing this story and her beautiful work. I love the “Ends of the Earth” (I know I’ve gotten the title wrong).💕

Thank you for your reading me as usualy, Sheila :) Well, I think it's mainly because many still associate Surrealism with male artists, and most people would regard Salvador Dalí, René Magritte and André Breton as the main proponents, instead of thinking of women artists, who definitely contributed to the movement too!

Sigh, yes, you are right, sadly.
