Lachaise was a bit obsessed himself. To him, women were mountains, Earth Mothers, the "life force" of the universe. He used them with a kind of explicit symbolism, exaggerating their shapes sometimes beyond recognition, twisting their bodies with almost mannerist intent. His work is frankly sexual; so much so, in fact, that the Museum of Modern Art would not include some of his last and best pieces in its retrospective show in 1935.

Is there some kind of sex war going on? Certainly, it is made clear that the task of fitting man into Vassar's vision of perfection is hard indeed...
