Hogarth, Mary. Exhibits regularly at the New English Art Club, and occasionally at the New Gallery. Born at Barton-on-Humber, Lincolnshire. Pupil of the Slade School under Prof. Fred Brown and P. Wilson Steer.
Miss Hogarth's contribution to the exhibition of the New English Art Club, 1902, was called "The Green Shutters," a very peculiar title for what was, in fact, a picture of the Ponte Vecchio and its surroundings, in Florence. It was interesting. It was scarcely a painting; a tinted sketch would be a better name for it. It was an actual portrait of the scene, and skilfully done.
Hormuth-Kollmorgen, Margarethe. Born at Heidelberg, 1858. Pupil of Ferdinand Keller at Carlsruhe. Married the artist Kollmorgen, 1882. This painter of flowers and still-life has also devoted herself to decorative work, mural designs, fire-screens, etc., in which she has been successful. Her coloring is admirable and her execution careful and firm.
Hosmer, Harriet G. Born in Watertown, Massachusetts, 1830. Pupil in Boston of Stevenson, who taught her to model; pupil of her father, a physician, in anatomy, taking a supplementary course at the St. Louis Medical School.
Since 1852 she has resided in Rome, where she was a pupil of Gibson. Two heads, "Daphne" and "Medusa," executed soon after she went to Rome, were praised by critics of authority. "Will-o'-the-Wisp," "Puck," "Sleeping Faun," "Waking Faun," and "Zenobia in Chains" followed each other rapidly.
Miss Hosmer made a portrait statue of "Maria Sophia, Queen of the Sicilies," and a monument to an English lady to be placed in a church in Rome. Her "Beatrice Cenci" has been much admired; it is in the Public Library at St. Louis, and her statue of Thomas H. Benton is in a square of the same city.
For Lady Ashburton Miss Hosmer made her Triton and Mermaid Fountains, and a Siren Fountain for Lady Marian Alford.
