About a ghost that haunts a work by French painter Gustave Courbet (1819-1877). This is Jeanne Duval, a black woman whose real name we do not know, muse and companion of the poet Charles Baudelaire. Erased from the painting by Courbet himself, Jeanne has returned to the surface as if the paint pigments could not support her erasure.
