illustration, paintings) or cinematographic (The Blood of a Poet, Orpheus, Beauty and the Beast),
|
107_118
|
is pervaded with homosexual undertones, homoerotic imagery/symbolism or camp. In 1947 Paul Morihien
|
107_119
|
published a clandestine edition of Querelle de Brest by Jean Genet, featuring 29 very explicit
|
107_120
|
erotic drawings by Cocteau. In recent years several albums of Cocteau's homoerotica have been
|
107_121
|
available to the general public.
|
107_122
|
It is widely believed that Cocteau had affairs with Raymond Radiguet, Jean Desbordes, Marcel Khill,
|
107_123
|
and Panama Al Brown.
|
107_124
|
In the 1930s, Cocteau is rumoured to have had a very brief affair with Princess Natalie Paley, the
|
107_125
|
daughter of a Romanov Grand Duke and herself a sometime actress, model, and former wife of
|
107_126
|
couturier Lucien Lelong.
|
107_127
|
Cocteau's longest-lasting relationships were with French actors Jean Marais and Édouard Dermit,
|
107_128
|
whom Cocteau formally adopted. Cocteau cast Marais in The Eternal Return (1943), Beauty and the
|
107_129
|
Beast (1946), Ruy Blas (1947), and Orpheus (1949).

Death
|
107_131
|
Cocteau died of a heart attack at his château in Milly-la-Forêt, Essonne, France, on 11 October
|
107_132
|
1963 at the age of 74. His friend, French singer Édith Piaf, died the day before but that was
|
107_133
|
announced on the morning of Cocteau's day of death; it has been said, in a story which is almost
|
107_134
|
certainly apocryphal, that his heart failed upon hearing of Piaf's death. Cocteau's health had
|
107_135
|
already been in decline for several months, and he had previously had a severe heart attack on 22
|
107_136
|
April 1963. A more plausible suggestion for the reason behind this decline in health has been
|
107_137
|
proposed by author Roger Peyrefitte, who notes that Cocteau had been devastated by a breach with
|
107_138
|
his longtime friend, socialite and notable patron Francine Weisweiller, as a result of an affair
|
107_139
|
she had been having with a minor writer. Weisweiller and Cocteau did not reconcile until shortly
|
107_140
|
before Cocteau's death.
|
107_141
|
According to his wishes Cocteau is buried beneath the floor of the Chapelle Saint-Blaise des
|
107_142
|
Simples in Milly-la-Forêt. The epitaph on his gravestone set in the floor of the chapel reads: "I
|
107_143
|
stay with you" ("Je reste avec vous").
|

Honours and awards
|
107_145

|
107_146
