Details of her personal life were mired in controversy and
misinformation during her lifetime. Leslie Stewart Curtis has claimed
that, "If Jacquemin and her art have been largely forgotten, it is no
doubt related to the infamy she had acquired among her art world
contemporaries. In fact, there is evidence to suggest that she was
consciously expunged from written records." However, this can also be attributed, in part, to the relatively scarcity of her surviving works.
