- Lot Description
Lucretia Van Horn (California, 1882-1970), "Chiconcua", ink on paper, circa 1926, signed lower right
sheet: 10 x 12 in., frame: 15.5 x 17.5 in.
Provenance: Property from a San Antonio, Texas art and antiques collector
Lucretia Van Horn began her formal art studies at the Art Students’ League in New York in 1897 and continued her training in Paris, where in 1904 she became the first woman student to receive the Académie Julian’s Concours Julian-Smith Prize. Her early “accomplished, meticulous” style led to work as a book illustrator, but her exposure to Diego Rivera’s art and subsequent collaboration with him on murals in Mexico prompted a significant stylistic shift toward simplified, rounded figures set against flattened picture planes, with increasing emphasis on the lives of women, particularly Indigenous women of Mexico. After settling in San Antonio following World War I, she was one of the thirteen founders of the San Antonio Conservation Society, the oldest society of its kind still operating to this day. She then traveled to Mexico for mural work with Diego Rivera. She later became a prominent member of the San Francisco Bay Area art community after moving there in 1927, where she painted and exhibited frequently. Her principal documented distinction was the Concours Julian-Smith Prize, awarded during her studies in Paris.
