Elizabeth Nourse
This well-known Cincinnati artist was born in Cincinnati. Her early studies (1874-1881) were at the McMicken School of Art with W. H. Humphreys, T. S. Nobel and L. Ribisso. She attended the Art Students League where she studied with W. Sartain 91882) and again with Nobel (1885-1886). She studied at the Academie Julian with Boulanger and Lefebvre in 1887. Elizabeth became a full member of the Societe Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1901 and showed annually at the Paris Salon where her paintings were hung "on line." She exhibited internationally during her lifetime. Her work is included in the permanent collections of many of the world's most important museums.
