Portrait of Jeanette
Portrait of Jeanette seated on top of a desk in Vincenzo Poggi's Montreal studio. This photograph was most likely taken by Poggi the year before he was interned. Jeanette and Vincenzo Poggi married after his return from the prisoner of war camp. Mounted on the wall behind Jeanette are a number of pieces of art. The painting at the very top was done by Vincenzo Poggi earlier in his career. This black and white photograph of Jeanette is very similar to a painting Poggi made of his wife after the war.
