Beschreibung
Twice Unique by Elena Poniatowska presents the inner drama of an exceptional woman, set against the backdrop of the historical and cultural ferment of Mexico and Europe before and after World War II: María Guadalupe Marín Preciada, known as Lupe Marín (1895–1983). A femme fatale, an instinctive woman who captivated the attention of bohemians in Mexico and Paris with her extraordinary appearance, elegant demeanor, and sharp tongue. She was courted not only by the Spaniard Ramón del Valle Inclán but also by Vladimir Mayakovsky, Ilya Ehrenburg, André Breton, and other artists. She was the muse of many poets and painters, for whom she posed as a model. The wife of painter Diego Rivera (1886–1957) and chemist, poet, and literary critic Jorge Cuesta (1903–1942). An excellent cook, connoisseur, and devotee of Parisian fashion, who had a hard time in a society focused on folklore, including clothing. Without formal education but with a sense for art. An artist of life who influenced the direction of many world creators.
