Here is a photo of Leonora with Max Ernst. She looks SO young. I suppose she was.
Her erie, preternatural subject matter never fails to stimulate my curiosity and move me. I fell in love with her work with the first image I ever saw, the cover of the book "Leonora Carrington, Surrealism, Alchemy and Art" I highly recommend it.
Heres a little known fact, Leonora actually made a couple tapestries in her day. Probably not woven herself, but I love a person with respect and appreciation for textiles.
