Agostina Segatori (Ancona 1841–1910 Paris) was a famous model who posed for celebrated painters in Paris, France such as Édouard Joseph Dantan, Jean-Baptiste Corot, Jean-Léon Gérôme, Eugène Delacroix, Vincent van Gogh and Édouard Manet. She is also known for running the Café du Tambourin in Paris. ==Biography== Agostina Segatori was born in the Italian city of Ancona. In 1860 she posed for Manet and in 1873 for Jean-Baptiste Corot. Little is known of her life until she met the Parisian painter Edward Dantan in 1873, with whom she lived in a stormy relationship until 1884. Agostina Segatori had a child by Dantan, Jean-Pierre Segatori.〔Jean-Pierre Segatori was born on 17 June 1873. He was made legitimate by court order on 18 March 1884 as the son of Pierre Gustave Julien Morière and his wife Augusta Segatori〕 In 1874, she was depicted by Edward Dantan in the first work that he exhibited at the Salon, a wax medallion. During the summers of 1874, 1875 and 1877, Agostina Segatori posed many times for Dantan. In 1884, Edward Dantan described his former mistress by the name of "Madame Segatori-Morière": it seems that Agostina Segatori had married a Mr. Morière. His son Jean-Pierre is also called Morière, so he may have been recognized or adopted by her husband. Agostina Segatori is not only known for being the mistress of Edward Dantan, she was the proprietress of the Café Tambourin, at 62 Boulevard de Clichy in Paris. Agostina Segatori became famous for her relationship in the spring of 1887 with Vincent van Gogh, who lived in Paris from 1886 until 1888. We have little information on this relationship as Vincent van Gogh lived at the time with his brother, and we have very little of his correspondence from this period. However Agostina Segatori was cited in two letters by the painter. Information on the relationship was related by one of the closest friends of Vincent van Gogh, the painter Émile Bernard in an article he wrote on Pere Tanguy, an important Parisian character in the 19th century.〔Julien Tanguy in ''Mercure de France'', LXXXIV, 16 December 1908, page 606〕 It seems that Vincent van Gogh and Agostina Segatori were very fond of each other, and she inspired the painter, who made two portraits of her and several nudes in oil. Agostina Segatori gave Vincent van Gogh's first exhibition at her Café Tambourin. Their relationship quickly became stormy and they decided by mutual agreement to separate in July 1887. After this separation, Agostina Segatori improperly retained works by Van Gogh in her Café. Agostina Segatori died in Paris in 1910 after experiencing a number of setbacks including the loss of her Café.〔Archives familiales de la famille Ségatori aux archives de la ville de Paris.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Agostina Segatori」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
