What will be an ideal response?


Answer: The ideal answer should include:

2. The female model's name in Manet's title for Mademoiselle V . . . in the Costume of an Espada confuses the visualization of a male bullfighter.
3. Man Ray's dual-gender portrait underlines in words its subject, Marcel Duchamp as Rrose Sélavy.
