Euphemia Lamb edit

Euphemia Lamb by Ambrose McEvoy, 1909.

  • ... that Euphemia Lamb had six men in her room in one night in 1908, "representing the six European powers"?
  • ALT1:... that Euphemia Lamb had more of a sex life "than the rest of us put together" according to John Maynard Keynes?
  • ALT2:... that Euphemia Lamb liked dressing as a man, causing her and Augustus John to be arrested as homosexuals, and her having to undress to prove she was a woman?

  • (for alt1) Substantial article about an important woman involved with a pivotal group in art history. The article is well referenced and I have checked out alt1 to an online reliable source. (I'm not too keen on the other hooks) The image is free but might be improved by cropping to a square image. I didnt spot any paraphrasing after scanning two major refs. Experienced editors involved who konow the rules. Thanks for an interesting contribution. Victuallers (talk) 20:28, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
