THERESE HOLBEIN VON HOLBEINSBERG, Graz, Austria 1785 – 1859 Vienna. Wooded Landscape. This original etching, c1814,

THERESE HOLBEIN VON HOLBEINSBERG
Graz, Austria 1785 – 1859 Vienna

The daughter of Lieutenant Colonel Philip Holbein von Holbeinsberg, the last of the line, settled in Vienna about 1814, as a painter and etcher.

She never married and lived in seclusion, though she did publish a couple of sets of etchings; Six Views of the environs of the Castle of Limburg on the River Lahn, c1813 and thirty Landscapes after Nature and after different masters, c1814.

This little scene of a waterfall is probably from the latter series, though other examples from the series are landscape rather than portrait in format.

MARY NIMMO MORAN R.E., Strathaven, Scotland 1842 – 1899 East Hampton, New York. Goose Pond. This original etching, c1882, is for sale, priced £85

Mrs MARY NIMMO MORAN R.E.
Strathaven, Scotland 1842 – 1899 East Hampton, New York

After the death of his wife, Mary’s father took the Nimmo family to America in 1847 and they settled in Crescentville, Philadelphia. Their neighbours were English immigrants, the Morans, who had two sons who grew up to be artists. In 1862 Mary married Thomas Moran, five years her senior and became his pupil and assistant. The Civil War ended, in 1866 -1868 they made a tour of European cities, passing some months in London.
After their return home they moved to New Jersey, where in 1878 they acquired a press and Thomas taught Mary to etch.

Mary had immediate success in the medium. She was elected to the Society of New York Etchers, the only woman member, and invited to exhibit in London at the founding exhibition of the R.E., resulting in her election as a Fellow of the Society.
Ruskin admired her work and bought three of her etchings in 1882.

After spending several summers in East Hampton the Morans settled there in 1882, buying land and building a house and studio in a sheep pasture overlooking Goose Pond. Many of Mary Nimmo Moran’s etchings, like this example, showed the landscape of the area.
