Miss Webb

Overview

Miss Webb, an English or American woman painter of Marie's Paris studio circle, who in 1881 visited her picture with Mlle de Mertens and Anna Klumpke and in 1883 is a correspondent at Concarneau. The Mon Journal t.16 index has «Webb (Miss) : 53»; the 1881 «Weeb» is the same name misspelt (an inference).

Relevance to Marie

Stub replaced. Footnote 1 at 092.0350 (Anna Klumpke, 1856–1942) is the existing one. The identity of Miss Webb beyond the two paragraphs is not established; it is likely she is a Julian student but this is not stated. Possible duplicate: WEBB (stub).

Identity uncertain

We are not sure who this is. She appears only twice: among the painters who came to see Marie's picture on 31 July 1881 (spelled «Weeb», 092.0350) and as the friend who wrote from Concarneau in October 1883 (101.0587). Her first name, nationality and whether she studied at Julian's are not given. If you can identify her, we would be glad to hear from you.

References in Diary

On 31 July 1881 «Mademoiselle de Mertens, Weeb, Klumpké sont venues voir mon tableau» but Marie would need Julian or Tony (092.0350). On 12 October 1883 «Miss Webb m'écrit de Concarneau» that it is impossible to paint outdoors there now, which makes Marie drop her Concarneau plan (101.0587).
