She is known for having participated in the Salon des Femmes Peintres et Sculpteurs, an important exhibition that highlighted the works of women artists at a time when they were often marginalized. This exhibition played a crucial role in providing a platform for women to exhibit their works and gain recognition. There is currently a growing enthusiasm for women painters of the 19th century. Several recent exhibitions and publications highlight their work and their contribution to the history of art. frame 49.7x57.7
