PELICHY, GEERTRUIDA. Honorary member of the Academy of Vienna. Born in Utrecht, 1744; died in Brugge, 1825. Pupil of P. de c.o.c.k and Suvee. In 1753, she went to Brugge with her father, and later to Paris and Vienna.

She painted portraits of the Emperor Joseph II. and Maria Theresa, some good landscapes, and animal studies. Two of her pictures are in the Museum at Brugge.

PELLEGRINO, ITALA. Born at Milan, 1865. Pupil of Battaglia. Her pictures are of genre and marine subjects. At the great exhibition at Turin, 1884, she exhibited a marine view which was bought by Prince Amadeo. Another marine view exhibited at Milan was acquired by the Societa Promotrice. In 1888 she sent to the exhibition at Naples, where she resides, a view of Portici, which was added to the Royal Gallery. The excellence of her work is in the strength and certainty of touch and the sincerity and originality of composition. She has painted a "Marine View of Naples," "In the Gulf," "Fair Weather," and "Evening at Sea"; also a genre picture, "Frusta la," which was sold while in an exhibition in Rome.

PENICKE, CLARA. Born at Berlin in 1818, where she died in 1899. She studied first with Remy and later with Carl Begas and Edward Magnus. Her work was largely confined to portrait and historical painting. In the Gallery at Schwerin is her "Elector Frederick of Saxony Refusing to Accept the Interim." Another good example of her historical work is the "Reconciliation of Charlemagne with Tha.s.silo of Bavaria." A well-known and strongly modelled portrait of Minister Von Stoach and several Luther portraits, "Luther's Family Devotion" and "Luther Finds the First Latin Bible," show her facility in this branch of art. She also painted a "Christ on the Cross."

PERELLI, LIDA. A landscape painter living in Milan, who has become well known by pictures that have been seen at the exhibitions in several Italian cities, especially through some Roman studies that appeared at Florence and Turin in 1884. "A View of Lecco, Lake Como," "Casolare," and "A Lombard Plain" are among her best works.



PERMAN, LOUISE E. Born at Birkenshaw, Renfrews.h.i.+re. Studied in Glasgow. This artist paints roses, and roses only, in oils. In this art she has been very successful. She has exhibited at the Royal Academy and the New Gallery, London; at the Royal Scottish Academy, Glasgow; at art exhibits in Munich, Dresden, Berlin, Prague, Hanover, etc., and wherever her works have been seen they have been sold. In May, 1903, a collection of twenty-five rose pictures were exhibited by a prominent dealer, and but few were left in his hands.

A critic in the _Studio_ of April, 1903, writing of the exhibition at the Ladies' Artists' Club, Glasgow, says: "Miss Louise Perman's rose pictures were as refined and charming as ever. This last-named lady certainly has a remarkable power of rendering the beauties of the queen of flowers, whether she chooses to paint the sumptuous yellow of the 'Marechal Niel,'

the blush of the 'Katherine Mermet,' or the crimson glory of the 'Queen of Autumn.' She seems not only to give the richness of color and fulness of contour of the flowers, but to capture for the delight of the beholder the very spiritual essence of them." To the London Academy, 1903, she sent a picture called "York and Lancaster."

PERRIER, MARIE. Mention honorable at Salon des Artistes Francais, 1899; Prix Marie Bashkirtseff, 1899; honorable mention, Paris Exposition, 1900; numerous medals from foreign and provincial exhibitions; medals in gold and silver at Rouen, Nimes, Rennes, etc.; bronze medals at Amiens and Angers. Member of the Societe des Artistes Francais; perpetual member of the Baron Taylor a.s.sociation, section of the Arts of Painting, etc.

Born at Paris. Pupil of Benjamin Constant, Jules Lefebvre, and J. P.

Laurens.

Mlle. Perrier's picture of "Jeanne d'Arc" is in a provincial museum; several pictures by her belonging to the city of Paris are scenes connected with the schools of the city--"Breakfast at the Communal School"; "After School at Montmartre" were at the Salon des Artistes Francais, 1903; others are "Manual Labor at the Maternal School,"

"Flowers," and "Recreation of the Children at the Maternal School." Of the last Gabriel Moury says, "It is one of the really good pictures in the Salon."

This artist decorated a villa near Nimes with four large panels representing the "Seasons," twelve small panels, the "Hours," and pictures of the labors of the fields, such as the gathering of grapes and picking of olives.

She has painted numerous portraits of children and a series of pictures ill.u.s.trating the "Life of the Children of Paris." They are "Children at School and after School," "Children on the Promenade and Their Games,"

and "Children at Home."

PERRY, CLARA GREENLEAF. Member of the Copley Society. Born at Long Branch, New Jersey. Pupil of Boston Art Museum School, under Mr. Benson and Mr. Tarbell; in Paris pupil of M. Raphael Collin and Robert Henri.

Miss Perry has exhibited her portrait of Mrs. U. in the Salon of the Societe Nationale des Beaux-Arts and in Philadelphia. She paints landscapes and portraits.

PERRY, LILLA CABOT. Pupil in Boston of Dennis Bunker and Alfred Collins; in Paris of Alfred Stevens, Robert Fleury, Bouguereau, and Courtois; in Munich of Fritz von Uhde.

Mrs. Perry is essentially a portrait painter, but has painted landscapes, especially in j.a.pan, where she spent some years. The scenery of j.a.pan and its wonderfully beautiful Fuziyama would almost compel an artist to paint landscapes.

Mrs. Perry says that her pictures of French and j.a.panese types are, in fact, portraits as truly as are those she is asked to paint.

Her picture of a "j.a.panese Lacemaker" belongs to Mr. Quincy A. Shaw. It has been much admired in the exhibitions in which it has been seen.

In the Water-Color Exhibition of the Boston Art Club, 1903, Mrs. Perry's portrait of Miss S. attracted much attention. The delicate flesh tones, the excellent modelling of the features, and what may be called the whole atmosphere of the picture combine in producing an effective and pleasing example of portraiture.

PERUGINI, CATERINA E. An Italian painter living in London, where she frequently exhibits her excellent pictures. Among them are "A Siesta,"

"Dolce far Niente," "Multiplication," and portraits of Guy Cohn, son of Sir Guy Campbell, Bart., and of Peggy and Kitty Hammond, two charming children.

At the Academy, 1903, she exhibited "Faith" and "Silken Tresses."

PERUGINI, MRS. KATE d.i.c.kENS. Younger daughter of Charles d.i.c.kens and wife of Charles Edward Perugini. This artist has exhibited at the Royal Academy and at other exhibitions since 1877. Her pictures are of genre subjects, such as the "Dolls' Dressmaker," "Little-Red-Cap," "Old Curiosity Shop," etc. At the Academy, 1903, she exhibited "Some Spring Flowers."

PETERS, ANNA. Medals at Vienna, 1873; London, 1874; Munich, 1876; Amsterdam and Antwerp, 1877. Born at Mannheim, 1843. Pupil of her father, Pieter Francis Peters, in Stuttgart. Miss Peters travelled over Europe and was commissioned to decorate apartments in the royal castles at Stuttgart and Friedrichshafen.

Her picture of "Roses and Grapes" is in the National Gallery, London; and one of "Autumn Flowers" in the Museum at Stuttgart.

PILLINI, MARGHERITA. An Italian painter living in Paris. Her most successful exhibitions have been those at Rome, in 1883, when her "Silk-coc.o.o.n Carder of Quimper" and "Charity" appeared; and at Turin, in 1884, when "The Three Ages," "The Poor Blind Man," and a portrait of the Prince of Naples were shown, all exquisite in sentiment and excellent in execution. The "Silk-coc.o.o.n Carder of Quimper" has been thus noticed by De Rengis: "If I am not mistaken, Signora Margherita Pillini has also taken this road, full of modernity, but not free from great danger. Her 'Silk-coc.o.o.n Carder' is touched with great disdain for every suggestion of the old school. Rare worth--if worth it is--that a young woman should be carried by natural inclination into such care for detail."

PINTO-SEZZI, IDA. Silver medal at the Beatrice Exposition, Florence, 1890. Since 1882 pictures by this artist have been seen in various Italian exhibitions. In the Beatrice of that year she exhibited "Cocciara," and in 1887 "A Friar Cook." Her "Fortune-Teller" attracted general attention at Venice in 1887.

This artist has also given some time to the decoration of terra-cotta in oil colors. An amphora decorated with landscape and figures was exhibited at the Promotrice in Florence in 1889 (?) and much admired.

POETTING, COUNTESS ADRIENNE. Born in Chrudim, Bohemia, 1856. The effect of her thorough training under Bla.s.s, Straschiripka, and Frittjof Smith is seen in her portraits of the Deputy-Burgomaster Franz Khume, which is in the Rathhaus, Vienna, as well as in those of the Princess Freda von Oldenburg and the writer, Bertha von Suttner. Her excellence is also apparent in her genre subjects, "In the Land of Dreams" being an excellent example of these.

POPERT, CHARLOTTE. Silver medal at the Beatrice, Florence, 1890.

Born in Hamburg, 1848. Pupil in Weimar of the elder Preller and Carl Gherts; of P. Joris in Rome, and Bonnat in Paris. After extensive travels in the Orient, England, the Netherlands, and Spain, she established herself in Rome and painted chiefly in water-colors. Her "Praying Women of Bethlehem" is an excellent example of her art.

In 1883 she exhibited at Rome, "In the Temple at Bethlehem"; at Turin in 1884, "In the Seventeenth Century" and "The Nun"; at Venice in 1887, an exquisite portrait in water-colors.

POPPE-LuDERITZ, ELIZABETH. Honorable mention, Berlin, 1891. For the second time only the Senate of the Berlin Academy conferred this distinction upon a woman. The artist exhibited two portraits, "painted with Holbein-like delicacy and truthfulness"--if we may agree with the critics.
