This portrait of the actress was painted by her close friend. Her demeanour was described as one of 'vulgar sensuality'.

The dog is a Russian Borzoi, raised for wolf hunting.

She epitomised queer culture and gender fluidity in her time and performed male and female roles to high acclaim!

Including Hamlet.

Her gaze is striking isn't it!
