I posted the poem that accompanies this information just five mintues ago so it should be up tomorrow.

Here is a history of Chloe, who is a very famous lady in Australia.

I am personally very fond of this painting. I spent months hunting down a print which now proudly hangs in my lounge room. I find something deliciously aloof about her. My husband had an opportunity to see her in personal and was very impressed. I envy him.
 
The original Chloe can be found at Young & Jackson's pub, corner of Swanston and Flinders Street Melbourne.

I saw her there when I was pretty new to Oz almost 20 years ago. Didn't have a clue who she was but someone put me right.:)

Hubby got pissed there once when he was a young en. I would love to see her. I did some research before posting this and I was dissappointed to find out a legend I heard about her was not true. I had heard that the model went mad and killed, cooked up and ate about six people...
 
Very interesting thanks for posting the history of her and I look forward to reading your poem
