Marie Gautier (1867 or 1870- ?) - Lot 109
Marie Gautier (1867 or 1870- ?) Born on 20 January 1867 or 1870 in Paris, Marie Gautier was a pupil of her father, the artist Amand Gautier, as well as of Alfred Stevens and Puvis de Chavannes. From 1887 onwards she frequented the dealer Bing. After 1906, she stayed frequently in Algiers, where she taught at the École des Beaux-Arts. Until the 1930s, she participated in various Orientalist painters' salons. "Little is known about Marie Gautier other than her great interest in Japonism as well as in coloured etching, joining Guérard, Mary Cassatt, Rivière and Houdard. In 1893 she exhibited at the Salon de la Société nationale des beaux-arts, and over the next fifteen years she presented her colour etchings at various exhibitions such as the Société des peintres-graveurs français in 1897, the Salon d'automne in 1905, and the Salon de la Société des Beaux-Arts in 1907.
