Images of newly identified and still unknown models from various contributors
Picture 15 of 30
Irma Roche O'Dea's hair and dress in this confirmed Tonnesen photo lead me to believe that the original painting shown in the preceding image also originated as a photo by Tonnesen. The dress's lacy underslip seems to match that worn by Irma in the painting, and the identical hairstyle suggests that both photos may date to the same sitting.
