Arggh. I hate that Lolita -- terrible casting. She was a brunette
for one thing. And younger of course. There's a Balthus model that
looks very like Nabokov's creation but I doubt I could find it on-
line to share. In the monograph by Claude Roy, on pp. 106 and 107
are paintings of a girl called Therese. In one she appears very self-
assured, her legs crossed like a boy's in a chair; in the other, just
a sad-eyed girl with a sienna/umber background. Now that's Lolita.
