In fact we are now wondering if these sketchbook in this post is also a different Jeanne Magnin. It may be a popular name for artists!

This book is still in the possession of Tara Bradford, who bought it at a brocante and whose name appears on each of the photos. Her original blog post of over 12 years ago had far more information, but as it has since been deleted, I will myself forward your inquiry to her. I believe it was her intention to contact the Musée Magnin years ago.Lynne Rutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861049506323014982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565391737422896914.post-1644880603962137512021-03-16T07:42:38.911-07:002021-03-16T07:42:38.911-07:00I contact you after reading your blog.

I discovered these ornamental drawings that you present as works by Jeanne Magnin, coming from a sketchbook that belonged to her. <br />I’d really like to know why you think these drawings were made by Jeanne Magnin. As director of the Magnin museum in Dijon, you can easily imagine that it would be important for us to know this! Especially because we have very little information about Jeanne Magnin.<br />Thank you very much in advance for your answer !<br />Best Regards, <br /><br />Sophie Harent<br />Conservateur en chef / Directeur<br />Musée national Magnin<br />4 rue des Bons Enfants<br />21000 Dijon, Francesophie.harent@gmail.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565391737422896914.post-48669267111182314312010-04-18T21:46:18.824-07:002010-04-18T21:46:18.824-07:00ooh... these are nice!ooh... these are nice!Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409604820178478573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565391737422896914.post-62764926232291123372009-08-18T22:46:09.261-07:002009-08-18T22:46:09.261-07:00How does she do it?
