Mary Louise Fairchild MacMonnies (1858-1946) French, Oil on Canvas "Garden in Giverny"
Est: $20,000 - $30,000
Mary Louise Fairchild MacMonnies (1858-1946) French, Oil on Canvas "Garden in Giverny". Titled "Garden in Giverny" (artists wife). Signed in the lower right M MacMonnies. Impressionistic painting depicting a serene garden scene. The composition features a beautifully landscaped garden with a circular fountain at its center, surrounded by vibrant red and pink flowers. The pathways wind through the lush greenery, leading to a wooden bench where a woman dressed in white sits in quiet contemplation. Towering trees with dense foliage frame the scene, providing shade and depth, while a soft, atmospheric background suggests a distant landscape beyond the garden. An exceptional example of the artists wife in their garden in the rear of their 16th century French Monastery, a similar example exists by the artists first wife Mary and is hung in the Vernon Museum Giverny. The exuberant colors and exceptional highlighting of the landscape is one of the finest known examples to exist by the artist. The artist’s estate Frederick MacMonnies given to Frank MacMonnies (brother of the artist) by descent to the artists niece JoAn MacMonnies Huber and Don L Huber acquired directly from the Don L Huber estate in Glen Head, New York 2 of the 3 paintings are unarchived works directly from the family's estate, never seen before. 1 work (self portrait) is identified as example 62 in the book catalog raisonne. Period French stretcher along with the original lining identifying a Parisian canvas maker. Visible stretcher bar wear to the canvas on the perimeter. A skore line exists from the stretcher bar approximately 1/2 an inch below the signature. Very little craquelure or cupping. Appears to be the original stretcher. Provenance: Painting came by descent from the family of Frederick MacMonnies by his brother Frank MacMonnies; Don Huber Estate, Glen Head, New York. Overall Size: 27 x 37 1/2 in. Sight Size: 21 x 31 1/2 in. #9479 Mary Louise Fairchild (1858-1946) was an accomplished American painter. Born in Connecticut and raised in St. Louis, she studied at the St. Louis School of Fine Arts under Halsey C. Ives, where she excelled, even becoming the school's first female faculty member. Ives facilitated a scholarship for her to study in Paris, where she attended the Académie Julian and learned from masters like Carolus-Duran, adopting a bright, decorative style. In Paris, she met and married sculptor Frederick MacMonnies. She achieved significant success, exhibiting at the Paris Salon and winning medals at the Paris Exposition Universelle. Her portrait "Berthe" sold for $186,700 in 2004. As a student, Fairchild was exemplary, winning the Wayman Crow medal in 1880 as the best drawing student for that year. She became a frequent contributor to the bimonthly student publication, Palette Scrapings (see illustrations), which students illustrated with original sketches. Mary MacMonnies also embarked on a period of productivity and success: actively exhibiting at the Paris Salon, winning bronze medals in 1889 and 1900 at the Paris Exposition Universelle. Altogether, said fellow artist Eleanor Greatorex in an 1893 profile, her portraits and genre paintings soon placed her “among the strongest and best-known American painters in Paris.” Eventually, they had three children: Berthe (1895), Marjorie (1897), and Ronald (1899), who died of meningitis two years later. But their lives increasingly diverged, as Frederick traveled to his Paris studio for large projects; he also had a long-running affair with another American, who bore his son. Meanwhile, muralist Will Low (1853–1932) had become smitten with Mary and spent time in Giverny, accompanied by his long-suffering wife. In 1909, this situation came to a head when Frederick filed for divorce and Will’s wife died, generously urging him to “look after” Mary MacMonnies. He did just that, marrying her that same year. Two months later, they and her two daughters boarded a ship for the United States, where they settled happily in a Bronxville, New York, artists’ colony. Mary Low never saw Frederick MacMonnies again, and at Will’s urging even moved to expunge the MacMonnies name from her previous work. Toward the end of her life, Mary Fairchild Low painted lovely portraits, including one of Fanny Stevenson, widow of Will’s friend, the writer Robert Louis Stevenson. When she died in 1946, her New York Times obituary was titled, simply but fittingly: “Mrs. Mary F. Low, 88: Long Was An Artist.” - From AskArt

Housed in its original Newcomb Macklin Stanford White Frame. Provenance The Artist. The American Art Gallery, New York, NY, Sale of May 3, 1917, No, 25. Collection of J.D. Holmes. Private Collection, Arizona. Exhibition “American Paintings and Sculpture Contributed in Aid of the Relief Fund of the American Artist's Relief Committee of One Hundred", The American Art Gallery, New York, New York, April 30 - May 3, 1917. Literature The American Art Association, Illustrated Catalog of American Paintings and Sculpture Contributed by Prominent Artists for the Relief Fund of the American Artist's Relief Committee of One Hundred cooperating with the Fraternité des Artistes, Paris and for New York Allied War Relief, no 25. Lot Essay Mary Fairchild MacMonnies Low received her artistic education at the St. Louis School of Fine Arts, where she earned a three-year scholarship, and later pursued further studies in Paris at the Académie Julian under Carolus Duran. Married to Frederick MacMonnies for 21 years, she divorced him in 1909 and remarried another artist, Will H. Low, later that same year. In 1892, Low was commissioned to create one of two mural tympana for the interior of the Woman’s Building at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, held in 1893. Her mural, titled "Primitive Woman," was positioned opposite Mary Cassatt's "Modern Woman" and was widely regarded as the more successful of the two. This artwork was originally created for and presented at the American Artists' Committee of One Hundred Auction in 1917. This auction was part of a relief effort initiated by New York painters and sculptors to support the families of French soldier-artists, primarily through the sale of artworks and donations. Established and based in the American Fine Arts Society Building in New York in 1914, the organization's initial appeal for funds attracted the support of sixty artists. Eventually, the Committee expanded its membership to over one hundred and seventy individuals and adopted the name “The American Artist’s Committee of the One Hundred.” Beginning in 1915, the committee held exhibitions and auctions in collaboration with the Fraternité des artistes in Paris, which proved to be financially successful. In the preface of the 1917 exhibition catalogue, Committee Chairman William A. Cofflin praised the caliber of works featured in the show, stating that “the names are the best in American art and the examples are representative”. Notable artists participating in the auction along side Low included Lord Frederick Leighton, Harry Leith-Ross, and Jane Peterson.
