Description:

Elizabeth Nourse (American, 1859-1938) "Maternity" 22.8 inches high x 18 inches wide. Signed. Elizabeth Nourse (1859-1938) was one of the first nineteenth-century American female artists to become a successful Paris Salon painter and to be elected sociétaire in four categories ? drawing, pastel, watercolor, and oil painting ? by the prestigious Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. Her paintings appear in major international exhibitions. With singular empathy for her humble subjects, Nourse's unflinching realism gives an insight into the challenges of their daily lives. Born into a prosperous Cincinnati family, Nourse was affected by the 1861 failure of her father's bank during the Civil War. When the family was forced to move to Mt. Auburn, near the fledgling McMicken School of Design (later the Cincinnati Art Academy), the talented "Lizzie" qualified for free tuition. During her eight years (1874-1881) at McMicken, Nourse studied with artists whose names represent the golden age of Cincinnati art: John W. Twachtman, M. Louise McLaughlin, Edward Potthast, and Joseph Henry Sharp. She excelled at drawing, etching and lithography, sculpture, woodcarving, and watercolor and oil painting. Nourse refused a teaching position at McMicken in order to concentrate on painting. For that purpose she went to New York to study at the Art Students League and enrolled in McMicken's first course offering women the opportunity to study from the nude. Shipping Third Party.
