Confusion about names
editThe sources are extremely confused about which one is Margot and which is Anna, and if they are the same person. As far as I can tell, a consensus has emerged that Anna and Margot were indeed the same person, as they died on the same day. What's odd is why this wasn't cleared up a century ago.

- It looks like Colin B. Bailey cleared this problem up once and for all in 1997.[1] I will add this asap. Anna and Margot are the same person. Viriditas (talk) 03:08, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
- Articles that need to be fixed
- Female Nude (Renoir, 1876)
- Anna, Margot, or the same?
- Talk:Henriette Henriot#The Lovers
- Article currently claims The Lovers depicts Henriette per Bailey, but for some reason Gruitrooy 1994:44 claims it is Legrand. Gruitrooy makes the same claim (p. 78) about Woman with a Cat (1875). Could be an error or indicative of older research. Exclude for now.
- Lady in Black (1876)[2]
- Oddly, Russian art historians refer to Henriette Leboeuf in this work as Henriette Hauer. This could be an interesting clue of some kind, or more likely, a translation error in the English edition of the catalog.
- Not an error, apparently. Clayson (2003) notes that Herbert (1988) argues that the model in Manet's Nana (1877) might have been a portrait of the actress Henriette Hauser, and this is mentioned in Nana (novel), but the source failed verification. Is this then a typo (Hauer vs. Hauser)?
