Anna Elizabeth Klumpke, Portrait of Rosa Bonheur, 1898, pastel on paper, 21 7/8 in. x 17 15/16 in. (55.5 cm. x 45.5 cm.), Anna Klumpke's pastel portrait of the French painter Rosa Bonheur was created a year before Bonheur's death. Celebrated in her day as the most famous female painter of the nineteenth century, Bonheur was known for her realistic renderings of animals, especially horses. Klumpke, a native of San Francisco and a student at the Académie Julian in Paris, met Bonheur in France in 1889. Shortly thereafter the two women began a partnership that lasted until Bonheur's death. At that time Klumpke inherited Bonheur's estate and studio and for many years worked to preserve her artistic legacy. In this pastel drawing, which served as a preparatory sketch for a larger oil portrait now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Klumpke depicts Bonheur wearing her medal of the Order of the Legion of Honor.
