After this week's episode on "Taeo Field" Steinland, we thought we would return to Mommarchen, the French artists there with an episode on "Marie Lorenza." At the end of this episode, we talk about the Marie Lorenza Museum in Japan, which closed in 2019.

The museum is still curating a large collection of her art, though, and the museum collaborated with the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia for an exhibit called Marie Lorenza's "Sethic Paris," which ran for a October of 2023 until January of 2024. I went to it, it was lovely.

That was followed by another version of the exhibit at the Columbus Museum of Art later in 2024, so maybe there will be other exhibitions of her artwork in the future. This episode originally came out on June 26, 2019. Welcome to "Stuff You Mist in History" class,

a production of "I Heart Radio." (upbeat music) Hello and welcome to "The Podcast." I'm Tracy V. Wilson, and I'm Holly Fry. We are just back from Paris.

Indeed. I am sure Holly did this too. Of course I came back from Paris with a list of ideas for future episodes of "The Podcast." Oh yeah, the list is long.

Yeah, I'm planning to spread mine out, so it's not just like all 19th century France all the time. Even though that has been more 20th century than 19th. So when we had our trip to Paris, I went out just a little early for a little extra time,

a little jet lag recovery before the trip officially started. And one of the places I went during that time was the Musea de laurangerie. And I, and my husband had been drawn there by Monet's water lilies, but later on in our visit, I found myself just totally spellbound by five paintings by Parisian artist Marie Larson.

These are in another part of the museum. All five of them were of women and animals with very simple and willowy lines and this muted color palette of pink and blue and green and gray.

The audio guide had a little bit about what I was looking at

“and who painted them, but I really wanted to know more about this woman”

who had created these works. And that proved to be a little trickier than I expected. She produced a lot of work and she was really well-known and internationally sought after in her time, but that is less true today. It is especially less true outside of France. Her personal papers are in a French library, but they have been censored like with words physically cut out of them, either by her or by somebody connected to her estate.

And then they can also only be accessed with the estate's authorization. And one of the conditions of that authorization is that unpublished material from her work cannot be directly quoted. So her biography has not gotten nearly as much in-depth attention as some of her contemporaries and a lot of what's there is in French. And she also hasn't gotten as much attention

“from art historians because some of the nature of her work which we will be talking about as well.”

That didn't make any of this impossible. It just meant that when my husband was at the fancy library helping me out with getting me a book and he sent me a photo of like what would you like from this shelf. I said everything in English. Bring it all to me. It's a little more challenging than normal, but not impossible. So laughing at that. So to begin Marie Melanie Lawson was born in Paris on October 31st, 1883. I already love her as a Halloween baby. Her mother, Pauline,

may have had some cruel ancestry and her father was a government official named Alfred Tulay. Pauline and Alfred were not married. Alfred was not particularly present in Marie's young life. She actually didn't know he was her father until she was in her 20s and at that point he had died. Although he didn't acknowledge Marie as his daughter, Alfred Tulay, might have given the family some financial support. Pauline was able to establish herself as a seamstress and an embroiderer

“and provide herself and her daughter with a pretty middle-class lifestyle. They lived in an apartment”

at the foot of Montmartre, usually with at least one cat, which is another reason to love her. Of course. Pauline was very strict. Gertred Stein described her and Marie as being like a pair of nuns living in a convent. Pauline also wanted Marie to be educated and cultured and their apartment was filled with books, something that Marie would carry into her adult life. She had a library of about 5,000 volumes by the time that she died. Marie and her mother also took frequent

trips to the Louvre and other museums. Pauline loved to sing and Marie loved to listen to her.

She would later say that without her mother singing, she probably never would have picked up a paint

brush. But otherwise, their life at home was very quiet and almost austere. Pauline was really hoping that Marie would grow up to be a teacher, but Marie dashed that hope very thoroughly by coming in last in every subject, at least say, Lamartine. That included art class, although Marie was interested in art from a young age. By the turn of the century, she was particularly drawn to the impressionists, the post impressionists, and the focus, including Saison, Renoir,

Manet, to Luzletrec, and Matisse. She also wrote poems, some of which were later published under the pseudonym Louvre's Lalan. Without teaching as a possible way to support herself, Marie turned to painting, specifically painting on porcelain through the several porcelain factory. And this was a challenging path for her. She was extremely near-sighted, and eyeglasses were not fashionable in Paris in the early 20th century. Lamartine used a lawn yet, or a pair of lenses on a handle,

to look at her work. She didn't let her vision keep her from doing anything, though. She enjoyed fencing, which she would do with glasses in one hand, and a foil in the other. This delighted Palparais, previous podcast subject, so much that he made her a special costume to do it in and let her fence in his apartment. While she was studying porcelain painting, Lamartine was also attending regular gatherings hosted by Natalie Barney, who had moved to Paris from the United States.

Barney was a writer, a poet, and an ares, and she hosted a salon in Paris's Latin quarter that was frequented by some of the city's most prominent artists, writers, musicians, and patrons. Barney was also unapologetically publicly lesbian, when homosexuality was really heavily stigmatized. She was actually one of the inspirations for the character of Valerie Seymour,

and Radcliffe Hall's The Well of Loneliness, which was one of the first lesbian novels written in English.

Barney had been nicknamed the Amazon after being seen writing a horse by sitting a stride it instead of side-saddle. When she first started the salon, she called it the salon of the Amazon and admitted only women. She held other women only events as well, including all women pagan circles, and she later established a women's art academy, since Lakademi Fonsez admitted

Lauren Saw was a regular at the salon, and at other gatherings at Barney's home.

“Pierre Louie, who was the author of Shansong Dabilitis, attended the salon as well.”

We talked about Shansong Dabilitis recently in our Sappho episode, but just in case you missed that one, this was a supposedly unearth set of erotic poems that were reportedly by one of Sappho's students. They were really Pierre Louie's own creation, though.

One of Lauren Saw's first produced works of art was an etching titled Shansong Dabilitis,

which she printed repeatedly in 1904 in 1905. They're really experimenting with colors and techniques that she did it. This depicts two women kissing with an oil lamp that looks a little bit like a waterfowl of some sort in the corner. By the time she was doing this print work, Lauren Saw had decided to branch out from porcelain painting. She started studying at the Academy Umbail, which was one of the many art academies in the mummal district of Paris.

She learned drawing and printmaking and started meeting members of the Parisian avant-garde,

“including George Brock, with whom she developed a very close friendship.”

Along with Pablo Picasso, Brock was one of the founders of Cubism, Brock introduced Lauren Saw to Picasso and Picasso introduced her to Guillaume Epolinear around 1907, telling him that she would make him a good fiance. Apollinear was eight years older than Lauren Saw. Born in Rome as Wilhelm Apollinear,

the Kestravitzky. He was raised in various parts of southern France before finally settling down

in Paris. He and Lauren Saw had a lot in common. They were both raised by unmarried mothers, both connected to Paris's avant-garde community, and both passionately creative on their own. They started and intense and sometimes volatile relationship. Both of them seeming to draw creative inspiration from each other and from the relationship itself. Sometimes Lauren Saw is described as Apollinear's muse. That's something that was possibly inspired and definitely

reinforced by Henri Russo's 1909 portrait of them, which is titled The Muse Inspiring the Poet. This is actually the picture that is used for the artwork on our website for copyright reasons, meaning it's the one we had access to because of copyright. So if you come to our website, that is what you're seeing, not some of her own work. And it is clear that Apollinear's work was changed significantly while they were together. His early writings were explicit erratica,

but in 1909, he published his first volume of poetry. He also became a literary and art critic, helping to define the cubist movement and supporting the work of writers and painters all across the world of permission modern art. Apollinear said Lauren Saw invented poetry for him, and he described her as his feminine counterpart. But this was not at all a one-way street with Lawrence and just sort of passively inspiring Apollinear to greatness merely by existing, which is sort

of how people imagine muse's work. They were both really drawing from and challenging each other, and she was developing as an artist in her own right while they were together. These were really formative years from Henri Lauren Saw. Her work through the 1910s was stylized, somewhat influenced by the cubists. She was often working in color palettes that were dominated by a lot of brown. And she was also exploring her technique through creating self-portraits.

She did at least 36 self-portraits during her lifetime. Those just being the ones that were titled as self-portraits. A third of those were before 1914. Laura Saw continued to live with her mother during her study of art and her relationship with Apollinear. And we'll get into how these years unfolded after we first take a pause for a little sponsor break. You know Rolldahl, the writer who thought of Willy Wonka,

Matilda, and the BFG. But did you know he was also a spy? Was this before he wrote his stories? I'd must have been. Our new podcast series, the secret world of Rolldahl is a wild journey through the hidden chapters

of his extraordinary controversial life. His job was literally to seduce the wives of powerful

Americans. And he was really good at it. You probably won't believe it either. Okay, I don't think that's true. I'm telling you, because I was a spy. Did you know Dahl got cozy with the Roosevelt's? Play poker with Harry Truman, and had a long affair with a Congresswoman. And then he took his talents to Hollywood. We worked alongside Walt Disney, an Alfred Hitchcock, before writing a hit James Bond film.

You're trying to make a love and good. Listen to betrayal season 5 on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Parisian avant-garde community of the 1900s and 19 teens was really highly

interconnected. Many painters also wrote poetry and many poets also painted or did some other visual or plastic art. Artists and writers were gathering constantly in cafes and coffee shops and galleries and people's homes. Laura San was an active and visible part of this scene. And although her mother had her doubts about Marie's future as an artist, she hosted groups of cubists at their mom's mouthla apartment. Laura San was also frequently at the Battle of Wawa,

where Picasso and other cubists had their studios. And she was a regular at some of the most influential literary salons in the city. She wasn't universally beloved by this community, though. Pull and air praised her work really effusively to the point that people sometimes thought

and Pablo Picasso's girlfriend, Fernand Olivier, were both pretty dismissive and disparaging of her.

“Both Stein and Olivier wrote "Dirrice of accounts of an incident in which Laura San was”

drunk at a party." Olivier also called her affected and a bit silly and claimed that she was only successful because of her connection to a puleneir. Stein implied that Laura San didn't really fit in with the rest of the community either, writing "Everybody called Gertrude Stein Gertrude." Or at most Mademoiselle Gertrude. Everybody called Picasso, Pablo, and Fernand, Fernand, and everybody called Guillem Epeleneir Guillem, and Max Jacob Max. But everybody called Marie Lournsa,

Marie Lournsa. It's like the opposite of the Madonna thing. She wants all the names.

If you're wondering why Gertrude Stein refers to herself in third person. This is from the autobiography

of Alice B. Tockless, when it was written that way. In 1907, with a pollinators encouragement, Laura San exhibited at the Salon Days and in Pendon. This was an annual exhibition of independent

“artists that was established in 1884. After the official salon held by the Academy Royale,”

repeatedly rejected the work of the impressionists. The Academy Royale later became the accoled abosal. And this was the first of many exhibitions for Lournsa. In 1908, Lournsa sold her first piece of art, which was a painting called Group of Artists. It depicts the artist herself with Pablo Picasso and Fernand Olivier arranged around Guillem Epeleneir. Also, in the painting is Picasso's dog Frieke. Lournsa's buyer for this was past podcast subject Gertrude's

dime. And eventually, Lournsa would also paint a portrait of one of Stein's dogs

that dog being basket the second. In 1909, Lournsa painted a larger version of a similar scene,

known as Reunion in the Country or Apolleneir and his friends. This larger piece featured Gertrude's dime Fernand Olivier and an unidentified third woman as the three graces on the left-hand side

“of the frame. Guillem Epeleneir is roughly in the center, and to his right are Pablo Picasso,”

Margarillo, Maurice Climnitz, and Marie Lournsa herself. There is a dog in this painting as well, facing away from the center of the frame, but with its head turned back toward Apolleneir. Lournsa gave this one to Apolleneir as a gift, and it hung above his bed until his death. These two paintings are some of the most examined in Lournsa's work, and they both showed the influence of Cubism in her early painting. Especially the earlier years of Cubism before it

progressed to being just really abstract a lot of the time. They're both very flat with primitive lines and lots of brown gray and black, and both of them show Lournsa and his part of this group that also included Pablo Picasso. But while she was fascinated by the Cubists and was nicknamed our Lady of Cubism, Lournsa didn't really consider herself to be a Cubist. She counted people like Picasso and Matisse as contemporaries and credited them with teaching her what she knew about art,

but she also thought they would be embarrassed by her association with them. And as a side note, Apolleneir was his own potential source of embarrassment. On September 7, 1911, he was arrested for stealing the Mona Lisa from the Louvre, which he had not done. However, he and Picasso had gotten someone else to steal a couple of ancient Iberian busts for them, which Picasso used his models for his painting. Lately, dimwazels Daviol.

Apolleneir tried to anonymously return these busts, and that led to him being held for six days for the unrelated Mona Lisa theft. He wasn't ultimately prosecuted for the theft of these busts, but this did put quite a bit of strain on his and Lournsa's relationship. In 1912, Lournsa was the only woman to be part of Lamezon, Cubist, or the Cubist house, which was an art installation for the 1912 Salon Dottom. Like the Salon Days and Appendom,

the Salon Dottom had been established in response to the conservatism of the Academy. The Cubist house was an architectural installation with a facade full of angles and interior rooms

adorned with Cubist art. The response in the press was incredibly critical. This combination of

a structure meant to look like a family home filled with avant-garde art, really struck a nerve with the public. In the face of all this criticism, Lournsa and a couple of other women stood guard outside, armed with umbrellas. Lournsa continued to make connections and show her work in the early 19 teens. She was part of the group of artists known as the sectional door, and she exhibited her work with them. She had several pieces at the International

Exhibition of Modern Art in New York City in 1913, which came to be known as the Armory Show. This was just a groundbreaking and incredibly influential exhibition, and it was many

in 1912 or 1913 after about six years together. Although, he had a reputation as a

“philanderer, they stayed in touch. And apparently, Appalinaire thought they would get back together”

until 1914. That's when Lournsa married German artist Otto Van Vittien. Lournsa said Van Vittien reminded her of her mother, who had died at about the same time that she broke up with Appalinaire. This was a difficult year or so in her life, and this marriage wasn't particularly happy. World War I started while the two of them were on their honeymoon, and because Van Vittien was German, they had to leave France. They went to Spain,

which was neutral during the war. Lournsa soon made connections among Spain's modern artists, particularly the dataists. She also had lots of letters from France and visitors from time to

time. One eagerly welcomed visitor was fashion designer Nicole Ghu, who was Paul Paray's sister.

Lournsa and Ghu had met in 1911 and they were extremely close for the rest of their lives, including a love affair during at least some of that time. Nicole's daughter Flora was one of

“Marie Lournsa's first biographers, and in 2018, Marie and Nicole's relationship with the subject”

of a novel, Jay on television, or I have such a desire. While she wasn't totally cut off from her friends and friends, Lournsa desperately missed Paris and felt isolated and depressed. Part of the avant-garde community had also really heavily criticized her for her split with the Pollenaire and her marriage to a German. She eventually broke off from the cubists, but she continued to work, and she started to really establish some of the visual style that she became more known

for with lots of pinks and blues and greens, rather than the browns that had dominated a lot of her earlier work, and depictions of women and animals more often than her depictions of men. Many of her wartime paintings also show how unhappy she was during these years, with elements that suggest being trapped or imprisoned. For example, the prisoner shows a woman in blue looking out from behind flowing pink curtains with a black pattern that resembles a chainlink fence.

While Lournsa was away from France, Guillaume et Pollenaire died. He was injured in the war, and then he died of influenza. Van Vapian also started abusing alcohol in Lournsa and filed for divorce in 1919. The split was apparently amicable, though. They stayed in touch until his death

in 1942. Lournsa was finally able to return to France in 1921. A year later, she underwent

surgery to treat stomach cancer, and she also had a his directomy. Back in France, Lournsa secured the representation of influential art dealer Paul Rosenberg, who also represented people like Pablo Picasso and Ari Matisse. Rosenberg would continue to be her art dealer until 1940 when he had to flee France in the face of Nazi occupation. From her return to France until about 1937, Lournsa was at the height of her career.

Her work was exhibited in London, Paris, New York, and she was financially successful through commissions, and the sale of her work. She continued to work mainly in pinks, blues, grays, and greens, often depicting women and girls in dreamy, slightly unreal settings.

“At one point, she said, "Why should I paint dead fish, onions, and beer glasses?”

Girls are so much prettier." In the words of an art critic quoted in her obituary in the New York Times, "She can paint a girl with eyes like a dough and a dough with eyes like a girl." Lournsa also started working as a portrait artist, and she was successful enough to be selective about who she painted, although her dealer repeatedly had a discourage her from just giving her paintings away to people that she liked. She reportedly charged men more than she charged

women, and because she found blonde women to be the most inspiring, she charged Brunez, more than blondes. She would also only paint children if she liked them. One of her most famous paintings is a French fashion designer, Coco Chanel, done early in Lournsa's career as a portrait artist. This is one of the paintings in the Muse de de Lournsa Re. Chanel is draped in blue and black with a dog on her lap. She has her head

resting in her hand, and she looks somewhere between wistful and pensive. Another dog is in the background along with a great dove. Lournsa's portraits followed the same style as the rest of her art that she was doing around this time, so they were not really realistic likenesses of her subjects and their clothing. So when she saw this painting, Chanel refused to pay for it because it didn't look like her, then Lournsa refused to do it over and kept the original for herself.

In spite of this inauspicious start, Lournsa became famous and sought after for these pastels simplified portraits. People would arrive to be painted wearing couture on Psalms, only for Lournsa to cover them up with scarves and drapes that she had around for that purpose. She also had romantic relationships with many of her subjects regardless of their gender.

those, but other work as well. In 1924, she designed the costumes and sets for the ballet

“russes, Levych or The Does by Sergei Diaglev. When this ballet was staged in the United States,”

dancing in the principal role was past podcast subject Maria Taltchef. Lournsa also designed costumes and sets for the comedy frances, which is one of France's state theaters. Lournsa was a book illustrator as well. Just as a few examples, in 1930, she drew a set of illustrations for an edition of Alice in Wonderland. She also illustrated the garden party and other stories by Katherine Mansfield and an American edition of Camille by Alexander Dumafis.

That last one drew some criticism because all 12 of the illustrations she created were of the book's main character, Margaret Gutier. In 1931, she became a founder member of the French Society of Women Modern Artists. She taught at Via Malacoff from 1932 to 1935, and she managed to stay financially afloat even during the Great Depression.

“In 1937, a retrospective of Lournsa's work was held at the Great Exhibition of Independent”

Art Masters at the Patee Palais in Paris. She also finally started wearing glasses that year, and it's around this time that her career started to slow.

She published a semi-autobiographical collection of poetry and prose in 1942 that was called "Lakarnet de Nuit." And although she continued to work in visual art and her outputs slowed down, as we said earlier, most critics consider her work at this point to be a repeat of the techniques and themes that she was developing earlier in her

“career rather than experimenting her breaking new ground. She did start to use some darker,”

brighter colors rather than the pastels that had become her hallmark in the 1920s and 30s, and this change in palette may have been connected to the ongoing deterioration of her vision. Although she was able to stay in Paris, Germans requisitioned her apartment during the occupation, and stayed with friends for the duration of the war. Some of her art was branded degenerate or looted by Nazis. Her politics during this time seemed to have been contradictory. She was part

of an intellectual scene that had lots of connections to the Vichy government, and in some ways Larson was complicit with them and with German authorities. At the same time, she tried to personally intervene to save her friend Max Jacob, who was a poet and a painter. Jacob was of Jewish

ancestry but had converted to Catholicism. He was ultimately deported to a concentration camp and

he died in 1944. When France was liberated at the end of World War II, Larson was arrested as part of the wave of arrests and purges known as the "Apporation" or "Purification." She was briefly incarcerated at Dancing and Tournament Camp but was ultimately exonerated and released. After the war, Larson was prone to cycles of depression and isolation. Her closest companion became Suzanne Moro, who had originally been her main. It is not entirely clear if the two of

them were romantically involved or if Larson was more like Moro's surrogate mother but they were together for almost 20 years. Larson legally adopted Moro in 1954 when she was 70 and Moro was 49. In 1950, Larson produced a series of 23 etchings for an illustrative collection of Sappho's poetry which had been translated by Edith Di Beaumont. In her earlier book illustrations, her were contended to resemble her paintings with similarly flowing lines and pastel palettes.

These Sappho illustrations, though, are still flowing in style but with a much simpler black and white design. Mori Larson died of a heart attack at her home in Paris on June 8, 1956. She was 72. She was buried in parallishes cemetery and at her request she was dressed in white with a rose in

“her hand and her love letters from Guillaume upon an air close to her heart. I think one of my few”

regrets about our trip to Paris is that I didn't realize until after we were back, all of these things about Mori Larson including her burial at parallishes because we were there but hers is not one of the graves that we went to. There are so many things to look at in parallishes you cannot fault yourself for missing anything. Well, you could be there really all these. And I think at that point, like, because that was one of the things that we sort of did on one of our free days while

we were in Paris and at that point, I think she was written in my list of ideas for podcast episodes

her name clearly affixed in my mind yet. So anyway, although she had been well-known and sought

after during her lifetime, her reputation faded pretty quickly after her death. She left instructions to Moro not to sell her paintings or to allow people to research her, so it wasn't really until

“the 1970s, which I think was after Moro's death and when there was renewed interest in women's”

and LGBT history that people started researching her life and seeking out more of her work, especially outside of France. The nature of her work also may have acted as a deterrent for biographers and art historians. There was a decorative element to Laura science paintings. She didn't push boundaries in the same way that many of her contemporaries did. Many of the cubists who were so important to Laura science early development and artistic network were creating work that was

increasingly abstract. And Laura said, on the other hand, ultimately broke away from the cubists

and she painted in a way that was pretty and appealing. She wanted to make art that people would enjoy looking at. Added to that, Laura's son and her work were explicitly intentionally feminine, given the gender standards of the day. Her pastel color palette and willy-fluid lines impressed

“people as just intrinsically female. And this made it really easy to write her off as just”

girl stuff rather than as a serious work of art that was full of nuance and symbolism and subtlety and sometimes humor. She clearly had an affinity for women in her work and her life as well. And that was something that earlier art historians seemed really reluctant to explore because of all the stigma surrounding lesbianism and bisexuality. Because so much of the interest into women's art in the 1970s was coming from the feminist movement, Laura science own preferences

and opinions complicated things as well. She really favored one type of model, one who was young, white, fair, and slender. And she also believed that women and men were fundamentally different and that women's art was fundamentally different from men's art. She said quote, "If I feel so far removed from painters, it is because they are men." And in my view, men are difficult problems

“to solve. But if the genius of men intimidates me, I feel perfectly at ease with everything that”

is feminine. That made her less appealing subject of study in the context of a movement for women's empowerment, autonomy, equality and independence. As a counterpoint to that idea, though, Marie Larissa was one of very few women artists to hold her own in the male-dominated world of French modernists. Although she was connected to the cubists and her early work show some cubist

influence, she ultimately broke away from all that and developed her own distinct unapologetically

feminine style. And that was transgressive in its own way. There's been more interest in Marie Larissa's life and work in Europe and North America over the past few decades. But she's been especially beloved in Japan. Japanese collector Masahiro Takano developed an interest in her work and acquired a huge amount of it, founding the Marie Larissa Museum in Nagano, Japan, which first opened in 1983 to mark her 100th birthday. At the time, it was the only museum in the world dedicated

to the work of a woman artist. The museum closed in 2011 for financial reasons. In 2013, pictures from the museum were part of a temporary exhibition at the Museum, Malmoldan Monet in Paris. After that, the Marie Larissa Museum reopened in Tokyo in July 2017. Unfortunately, it closed again on January 14th of 2019. When I was looking at the website for it, because sometimes I am calendar-challenged, somehow I thought January 14th, 2019 had not happened yet. And I was like, I got to go to Japan right

now and then I realized six months already to late. But yeah, the wording suggests that there maybe a future exhibition at some point in the future. And it's also clear that the people who have all this art of hers really love it and are caring for it. So maybe it will be on public view somewhere at some point in the future. Anyway, I love her. Yeah, she's great. Her art is very pretty. It's not my jam, but I appreciate it and think it's beautiful. Yeah, it's, uh, I definitely,

I kind of came around a corner where all five of the paintings that were on display all were. And I was immediately like, I am here for this. Yeah, that's the beautiful thing about art is when you have that like visceral, just unexplainable emotional reaction to it. That is why I love art so much. Yeah. And there's also, we'll have a link in the show notes to the episode because we couldn't personally put some of her artwork onto our website. We will have a link to the museum's

page on her that has all five, I think, of the paintings that you can look at there. I think they're
