Renowned Paris figure model, Fernande, reigned supreme as the most popular nude subject in the prolific French postcard era (early 1900s). Her near perfect body and delightful posing style was captured in numerous shoots by Jean Agelou and his brother George.

Fernande was the "secret lover" of many American Dough Boys stationed in France during World War 1. Her popularity endures today as her postcard images are still avidly sought after by collectors.
