Mary Cassatt, Marie Gonzales, Louise Abbema and Henriette Browne were among the group of women artists that attended the Chaplin studio. Chaplin studied and instructed at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. It was the Baroness de Rothschild who encouraged Louise to study art.Īt age 23, Louise began her studies with Charles Joshua Chaplin, who taught private art classes specifically for women at his studio.
The couple moved to Paris, where he worked for Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild. Marrying at the age of 17, Louise wed Frank Romer, her first of three husbands. Believing that women should receive the same education as men, Louise was part of the growing number of independent, career-oriented women who sought to push the limits set by a male-dominated society and exercise control over their own lives. Throughout her life, Louise worked to increase gender equality in the arts and in the lives of women. John Ruskin, Britain's leading art critic at the time wrote: "I have always said that no women could paint." A women’s place in society was still perceived as passive and their behavior governed by emotion. Reaching this level of achievement was exceptional for women of her generation.Īt this time, women had very few rights and their lives were bound to their father and/or husbands.
