    Louise Lyons Heustis American/Alabama, 1865-1951 "Girl with Flowers" oil on canvas signed lower right, framed. 14 x 10 in. (35.6 x 25.4 cm.), Frame: 19 1/4 x 15 1/4 x 2 in. (48.9 x 38.7 x 5.1 cm.) Louise Lyons Heustis was born in 1865 in Mobile, Alabama. She was drawn to art from a young age and attended a girl's boarding school in Pass Christian, Mississippi for her secondary education. At the age of fifteen, she lived with her grandparents in Philadelphia, taking a life class for two sessions at the Philadelphia Art Academy. In 1887, Heustis visited Europe for three years, traveling with friends, studying the masters, sketching and attending classes in Paris at the Academie Julian. Her teachers included Robert Fleury, Jules Bastien-Lepage, Charles Lassar and William Adolfe Bouguereau. Heustis then spent two years in Switzerland and Italy and would later study in Paris with Frederick MacMonnies at the Academie Julian. Returning to the United States upon the illness and death of her father, Heustis enrolled at the Art Students League in New York City. She studied with well-known artists Kenyon Cox and J. Alden Weir, including four years with William Merritt Chase at both the Art Students League and several summers at his Shinnecock, Long Island Art School. Her illustrations were included in magazines such as Scribner's, Century, Ladies Home  Journal and Harper's, as well as novels and books. Heustis became a successful and well-recognized painter of portraits, receiving many commissions to paint prominent individuals, families, and their children in New York, Norfolk, New Orleans, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Mobile and other cities. Her works were widely exhibited and awarded. Though she died in New York in 1951, Heustis' maintained strong emotional ties to Mobile and the South. The Mobile Art Association honored Heustis with an exhibition in 1965, and the Mobile Museum of Art commemorated the 130th anniversary of her birth with an exhibition in1995.
