This query has also been posted to CAAH.  The request is from the
same correspondence as my revious query re Moloch by Kaulbach.

  If anyone can help with this, I would appreciate it. On behalf
> of a prof., I am looking for a French painting, well-known,
> possibly 17th century, with a woman kissing herself in
> a mirror. The reference to the painting was in some unpublished
> correspondence (19thc. German).  The image that comes to mind
> is Bronzino's Venus, kissing, not a mirror, but cupid, and
> suggests to me that the painting, if it exists, could be a
> work from the School of Fontainebleau.
>
> Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
