On 16 May 2018, Tamara de Lempicka was linked from Google, a high-traffic website. ( Traffic) All prior and subsequent edits to the article are noted in its revision history. |
I'm going to restore 'and was famous for her many liaisons with both men and women' which was shortened to just 'and was famous for her many liaisons' by an anonymous user (Who's IP has been a source of vandalism according to the talk page for it (though it is a shared one it points out)), whilst I don't usually think a persons sexuality is terribly relevant, (do we specifically comment the heterosexuality of every historical figure who is?) it does seem in the case of Tamara De Limpicka to be relevant to mention it, most of the biographical information about her makes mention of it, including that by her daughter, and that linked on the main article, and in the context of the different societal attitudes to sexuality of the day it does illustrate something of how she was perceived in her day, also many people have commented on how her sexuality influenced her work which I think makes it very relevant to at least mention.

I hope that the edit summary was sufficient this time, apologies for not including a note on my first edit, I was restoring information that had been deleted (without explanation) and posted on the discussion page but I forgot to include a reference to that in the edit summary, my bad, I do feel however that removing it in the first place is what required an explanation since it was cited from and discussed extensively in biographical information already linked on the page.

Wasn't Tamara De Lempicka born in Poland and moved to Russia later? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.18.223.238 ( talk) 19:38:25, August 19, 2007 (UTC)
Poland did not exist as a nation state in 1898. Warsaw was then part of the Russian Empire. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.67.183.45 ( talk) 19:40, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
Madonna, Jack Nicholson and Barbara Streisand are known to be collectors of art? Aren't there other private collectors that would seem more notable? 84.48.214.224 ( talk) 10:29, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
Tamara Łempicka was born in Moscow or Warsaw in 1895 or 1898 Poland did not exist as a nation state in 1898. Warsaw was then part of the Russian Empire. It's true but exist small country- Polish Kingdom which king was russian tsar.(so if Lempicka was born in Warsaw, you'd say "she was born in Polish Kingdom". If she was born in Moscow, you'd say "she was born in Russian Empire". Her surname - Lempicka - is false because her true surname is Łempicka ( "Ł" you should read how "W" in Warsaw). -- 79.163.139.226 ( talk) 18:02, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
There is evidence that Lempicka created an exotic history for herself, but was actually from very humble beginnings, or so I have read in books of her work. There is also some dispute as to where she was born (some say Moscow). None of this is mentioned in the article. Johnny "ThunderPeel2001" Walker ( talk) 11:39, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
some links have broken or expired, the page owner should fix, thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.43.18.19 ( talk) 01:28, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

I guess it should be mentioned that her surname is pronounced "Lempitska". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nimbie95 ( talk • contribs) 22:36, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
According to the page at present, she married in Russia but her husband's surname is Polish: Łempicka. This has bearing on the name's pronunciation (though she went by "de Lempicka" presumably since relocating to Paris), which I'm verifying for Wikidata as there's an inconsistency in its transcription into non-roman alphabet WPs. If her husband was ethnically Polish and not Russian, this detail needs to be clarified with its reference cited, and the text changed accordingly. -- Deborahjay ( talk) 07:21, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
For Tamara de Lempicka's surname, there's an inconsistency among Wikipedia versions' transcriptions into non-roman alphabets. Russian and Ukrainian follow the Polish pronunciation of the letter "c" as [t͡s] so that the "cki" is pronounced [t͡ski], while Hebrew, Arabic and Persian ignore this, with the letters "cki" pronounced as [k]. The following details aren't mentioned in the article and require clarification:
What I seek for the latter is how she was known in the art world, whether or not according to Polish orthography (probably better known in France than in the USA or Mexico). -- Deborahjay ( talk) 07:32, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
In the fact square, divorce year is stated as 1931 and marige year as 1933 while in the running article text other years are stated. Please make the article consistent, whatever is correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hhaglund ( talk • contribs) 06:46, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

I apologize if this comment should have been placed elsewhere, but I couldn't find a accurate tag to mark the spot itself in the article.
There's a citation from "Noreen (2016), p. 93." under the subsection "Career." This is not a book that: 1) Is in the reference list, and 2) I can find anything about doing an online search.
I suspect the correct citation should be "Néret (2016), p. 93," but I don't have access to this book in order to check that this is correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ultramartin ( talk • contribs) 16:31, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

(
help)—actually says her birth name was Tamara. Several online sources give Maria Gorska as her birth name, but they are generally not first-rate sources. I checked three books (Néret 2000, Tamara de Lempicka: 1898-1980. Köln [etc.]: Taschen; Bade 2006, Tamara de Lempicka, New York: Parkstone Press; and Blondel, Brugger, and Gronberg 2004, Tamara de Lempicka: Art Deco Icon, London: Royal Academy of Arts) and they give her birth name as Tamara Gorska or Tamara Gurwik-Gorska. Grove Art Online and ULAN don't support Maria, although
The Art of Feminism does. Are there other sources that could clarify the matter? I don't think
Madonna Unstoppable is to be preferred over the biographies.

Hello, TDL is a painter. "Art déco" is a design movement and cannot be applyed to a painter. Painters have their own categories of movements. That's why I removed it. While waiting for your movement proposal, Merangs, it is better not to write anything in the infobox. Lekselle ( talk) 07:03, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
