Liane de Pougy (maiden name: Anne-Marie Chassaigne)
Born in 1869 and died in 1950
Liane lived an amazing adventure of a life - she danced through the Belle Époque and made her fortune - ending the graceful curve by finding salvation in a Swiss convent...though doing it comfortably with a special dispensation to live in a suite at the Carlton Hotel in Switzerland.
She died there in elegant comfort aged 81.

(One of my members here who is fluent in French, made quite a few corrections to my pronunciation and the meanings behind certain terms – that’s no surprise when it comes to me and the French language 😂 One important correction was the age that Liane got married, it was not 10 but 17. It was written so strangely that it confused me)
