A Kaub Casalonga Family Portrait 140 X 103 -

Very large full-length portrait signed Alice Kaub Casalongua exhibited at the salon of French artists in 1901 (see stamp on the back) - (1875 - Paris 1948) - Canvas entitled "Family Portrait" so a relative of this one -

To Kaub Casalonga was a close to Berthe Morisot and a feminist before the time, she actively participated in the feminist newspaper "La Française" initiated by the famous American journalist Jane Misme -

Elève de Bouguereau, and Ferrier she developed a dreamlike universe in some of these paintings -

I added a photo of her painted by Emile Thiviers where we see the beautiful Alice posing for the master -

Married to a diplomat, academy officer, she studied at the Julian academy, like me (alias Met de Penninghen only academy accepting women at the time) - In order to be able to exhibit in salons led by men, she was forced to sometimes sign Alain Kaub -

Without knowing her career path I went to this determined woman who had to af to face acerbic criticism -

A woman painter at the time was qualified as aliènè as was Berthe Morisot however married and supported by Eugéne Manet - An elderly woman whose sweetness wisdom simplicity touched me, everything converges towards this beautiful face, just a letter a vase in the shade on the table punctuate the canvas -
Splendid frame with braid of oak leaves and tassels gilded with leaf -

Coté Benezit - Very good condition of the canvas and the frame -
