A terrific photo of one of my least-favourite artists, the latter being a tireless purveyor of kitsch, imho

Hassett is one of the scariest, a moon-faced smiling energy vampire

He’d steal your silverware!

'...in his manner of life, in his disregard of social conventions, in his hatred of the police...he walked the streets of Paris, pilfering and light of heart, a Villon redivivus.' (from 'Twenty years in Paris: being some recollections of a literary life' by RH Sherard, 1906)

He was mentioned by James Joyce, photographed, painted, etched, sketched and sculpted, and was the hero of two films (this is the poster for Maurice Champreux's 'Bibi-la-Purée', 1925).

He became a kind of celebrity, of a particular French kind. There are photos and everything! His real name was André-Joseph Salis de Saglia and he came from a respectable family in Angoulême.

It's in the Post-Impressionist room of the National Gallery, a fantastic portrait of the absinthe fiend, thief and former actor who fastened onto Verlaine after his affair with Rimbaud and became his Private Secretary (Bibi flanked by Verlaine & Mallarmé @ café Procope, by Serafino Macchiati 1890).

What were the remarks this morning, I wonder?
