Anecdote Of Rosa Bonheur

Anecdote of Rosa Bonhuer.

Mme. Rosa Bonheur (Rosa stood for Rosalie) was not without a sense of humor, so it is told of her that while presiding over a school of design in Paris, the pupils being girls, the artist was disgusted with the class, because, imitating their teacher, the young women had cut their hair short. "Grand Dieu!" cried Rosa Bonheur. "How horrid you all look! This is not a class of boys. You silly creatures, let your hair alone and do your best so as to retain all the advantages of your sex."
