Henriette Ronner Sold at Auction Prices

Genre Painter, Animal painter, Painter, Water colorist, b. 1821 - d. 1909

Dutch artist Henriette Ronner, born in 1821, trained under her artist father for a time, but was primarily self-taught. Her favorite subjects, and those most prominent in Henriette Ronner's prints, are detailed images of farm animals, such as cattle, birds, horses, cats, and dogs. She used the same gouache method that her father used, which consisted of mixing a thick gummy paste with watercolors to lessen their transparency.

Henriette Ronner's painting prices grew steadily, but she lived modestly despite her new wealth; which increased through commissioned paintings of the royal dogs for the Queen of Belgium and other various nobles. Artist Henriette Ronner switched from painting dogs to painting cats, after she adopted a stray and was intrigued by its personality and feline movement.

HENRIETTE RONNER (1821-1909) ORIGINAL OIL ON BOARD PAINTING OF KITTENS – 9 IN x 10.5 IN
Est: $2,000 - $3,000
About the Artist: Henriette Ronner-Knip began painting seriously in 1835, after being tutored by her father Joseph August Knip from an early age. At the beginning of her career, Ronner-Knip painted a variety of subjects but all within the theme of animals and nature, first in watercolor, then in oils. She became the first woman admitted as an active member to Arti et Amicitiae in Amsterdam, and regularly contributed to exhibitions. In 1860, she created her most highly acclaimed work, entitled La mort d'un ami. For this painting she received the Gold Medal at the Levende Meesters exhibition in The Hague. In 1862, she exhibited the same painting at the World Art Fair in London, thereby establishing an international popularity. From 1870 till the end of her life, her subject matter became focussed almost entirely on cats. These paintings were particularly popular among the urban middle class, as cats were becoming increasingly popular as house-pets. Whilst frisky felines were her preferred subject, Ronner-Knip would occasionally paint other animals, most notably the lap dogs belonging to Marie Henriette of Austria and Princess Marie of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen.How she achieved the realistic character associated with her work, involved keeping a large group of cats in her home. She would observe their activity, then create paper sculptures in the desired poses, along with the necessary props such as furniture and fabrics. Near the end of her life, Ronner-Knip was highly regarded and described by Marion H. Spielman in their book Henriette Ronner: The Painter of Cat Life and Cat Character, as capable of producing.
