Additional Details

A classic image of "la Josephine" in her famous Follies Bergeres pearls and feathers costume. This image was on the 1927 program for the Follies, and it is quite likely that she either posed for this or sketches were made from life for it. We could find no reference however to an artist named "Giacchi."
