PS Just now I used google images to find some Sally Mann pictures.
There's one called Luncheon on the Grass that is a clear reference to
Manet's Dejeuner sur L'Herbe, starring his favorite model Victorine
Meurent. Victorine was a prostitute, and is also the model for
Olympia.
So it seems that at least twice, Sally Mann used Jessie as a stand-in
for Victorine in Manet's paintings. I will say without apology that
this seems like a bad idea to me.
