The book was an actual prop, at this size, in his studio. The model was holding a difficult pose and got interested in what she was gazing at, and wanted to turn the pages. But Flint wouldn't let her because that would disturb the pose. Now there's an advantage for using a camera, but Flint wouldn't hear of it.
