April 7, 1938

Suzanne Valadon (September 23, 1865 to April 7, 1938) mother of Maurice Utrillo (on her left) and one of her husbands on the right. I have mentioned her before. His maternal grandmother raised Maurice,(nobody now knows the name of Maurice's father) but I wonder if the cat here wasn't raised by Suzanne herself. The guys are looking at the cat, the cat at Suzanne, Suzanne, at the camera. What else is there to say.
