Femme fontaine nach Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven

One of the most famous works of art of the avantgarde―a urinal called Fountain, long attributed to the artist Marcel Duchamp as a so-called readymade―may not have been created by him but by the eccentric Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven. And what if, back in 1917, the Baroness or Duchamp had exhibited a sanitary pad instead? Anyhow, the museum transforms an object into art.
