Note du spécialiste

"I really live out my front room windows, which face up Broadway from 107th street. Its like having a street in your living room... Since I've always been claustrophobic it is a great escape for me not to feel shut up in a room....." (Alice Neel quoted in P. Allara, Pictures of People: Alice Neel's American Portrait Gallery, Waltham, 1998, p. 159).
