eral d’Aurelle de Paladines, General de Palikao, Count de Chambrun, M. Dufaure, and many others, both ladies and gentlemen. Her portrait of Thiers in 1872 was greatly admired.
Paul d'Abrest wrote of Mile. Jacquemart, in the Zeitschrift fur bildende Kunst: "One feels that this artist does not take her inspirations alone from the sittings of her subjects, but that she finds the best part of her work in her knowledge of character and from her close study of the personnelle of those whom she portrays."
Janda, Herminie von. Born at Klosterbruch, 1854. Pupil of Ludwig Holanska and Hugo Damaut. Since 1886 her landscapes have been seen in various Austrian exhibitions. One of these was bought for the "Franzens-Museum" at Brünn, while several others were acquired by the Imperial House of Austria.
Jenks, Phoebe A. Pickering. Born in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, 1849. Mrs. Jenks writes that she has had no teachers.
Her works, being portraits, are mostly in the homes of their owners, but that of the son of T. Jefferson Coolidge, Jr., has been exhibited in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and that of Mrs. William Slater and her son is in the Slater Museum at Norwich.
Mrs. Jenks has been constantly busy in portrait painting for twenty-seven years, and has had no time for clubs and societies. She esteems the fact of her constant commissions the greatest honor that she could have. She has probably painted a greater number of portraits than any other Boston contemporary artist.
