藤田嗣治
Lydis drew inspiration from Koran decoration and decorated Korans herself. Much of her portraiture features young women, including the lithograph "Les Paradis artificiels" (16 works, 1955), the pencil-and-watercolor drawing "Iris" (1940), and the oil paintings "Jeune femme de profil" (1933), "Portrait de jeune fille" (1955), and "Jovencita" (1950). Lydis also based some of her works, including "Les Criminelles", on prisons and condemned French women. She was influenced heavily by the Japanese artist Tsuguharu Foujita, her friend in Montmartre.
