Euphemia Lamb : ウィキペディア英語版 | Euphemia Lamb
Euphemia Lamb (c.1889–1957),〔 born Nina Forrest,〔(''Euphemia Lamb'', 1908. ) Tate. Retrieved 27 October 2014.〕 was an artists' model and the wife of Henry Lamb. She modelled for Augustus John and Jacob Epstein and came to exemplify the sexual freedom of the bohemian lifestyle of the early twentieth century.〔 Henry Lamb renamed her Euphemia, by which name she was generally known. John Maynard Keynes commented that Euphemia had more of a sex life "than the rest of us put together". She was one of the lovers of the occultist Aleister Crowley.〔 ==Early life== Nina's father was Arthur Forrest. Nina claimed that she was born on a steamship bound for Bombay, but there is no independent verification of this. She was raised in Greenheys, a poor district of Manchester known as a centre for prostitution.〔 Her working class accent, however, was not to everyone's taste, and Viva King, another Bohemian, said of one of Jacob Epstein's busts of Euphemia, "I fancy I can hear, through the open mouth, her ugly voice".〔
