| Born in San Francisco in 1856, Anna became enamored by the celebrated
French animal painter Rosa Bonheur, a giant among woman painters.
Anna’s mother arranged for her to study in Switzerland, then the family
moved to Paris. There she and her sisters often sat around a
large table, focused on sewing while one of her sisters would read
aloud. Anna executed a copy of Rosa Bonheur’s Plowing in Nivernais in the Musée du Luxembourg, which became for her a talisman. (showing 500 of 9572 characters). |
