Menu said a number of art historians had suggested that she was pregnant or had just given birth. Anyone you know?

Nope. It's not a new theory. In the past, some have suggested that she has the look of zoned-out contentment typical of mothers-to-be. I don't really think so. Back when I wrote about the portrait I looked into the family, and though I haven't checked again I don't think she had any children at that time.

As for the veil they describe, I'm sure it's there, but I'm not sure it's meaningful. Leo liked to play with difficult technical effects, and that's what he may have been doing here. After all, it's unlikely that the Moaning L was sitting around his studio every day wearing the same thing. Probably he worked mostly from sketches and only had her there when he was working on her face.
