Julia Beatrice How (Scottish, 1867-1932) Bebe Endormi signed lower right "B How" oil on board 26 x 20½cm (10 x 8in)
Provenance: Beaux Arts Gallery, 7 Bruton Place, London, W1; From the collection of Simon Hilton, Cambridge Other Notes: Julia Beatrice How was born in Bideford, Devon, and studied art under Sir Hubert Herkomer at Bushey and in Paris at the Academie Delacluse. Beatrice How lived for much of her life in France and exhibited there extensively where her work was held in high regard. She exhibited two works at the Royal Academy in 1924 and another painting 'L'Infirmiere' was shown there posthumously in 1936 (this work is now in the collection of Tate Britain having been acquired for the nation under the terms of the Chantrey Bequest). Her work also appeared regularly in the pages of Studio magazine in the 1920s; she was particularly known for her studies of babies but also produced numerous nude studies. Beatrice How's work is held in a number of public collections, especially in France, including the Musee du Luxembourg, Paris, the Musee d'Orsay, Paris, the Musee des Beaux-Arts, Lyon, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Potteries Museum & Art Gallery and the Kelvingrove Art Gallery, Glasgow. A memorial exhibition of her work was held in 1935 at The New Burlington Galleries in London, and in 1979 the Fine Art Society held a major show of her work in London.
