Ivana Kobilca is remembered for work the next generation could not ignore.
The record lists Ivana Kobilca as Slovenian artist (1861–1926).
Ivana Kobilca was born at Ljubljana in 1861. Her recorded nationality is Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.
The nineteenth century broke the academy's authority: independent exhibitions, dealers and the beginnings of modernism.
She worked as painter and artist.
Her recorded movement is french realism.
A painting outlives the argument about it, which is the only durable form of an artistic reputation.
That the work was made in Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes shaped it: artistic traditions, academies and the galleries that decide what is seen have never been evenly distributed.
Ivana Kobilca died in 1926, aged 65. The work remains, hanging in collections that outlived both the artist and the market that first priced it.
