In 1904 and 1908 she made trips to Finland while in 1907 she undertook a study trip to Paris. Her works include portraits of prominent figures of the day, including the composer Oluf Ring (1919) and the artist Kræsten Iversen (1927).
Smidt is also remembered for the efforts she made to take care of children. From 1916, she cared for five orphaned sisters and later adopted another foster daughter. After reunification, from 1921 she ran a folk high school in Lundsmark based on Grundtwegian principles.

## Biography

She was a nun in the monastery of Santa Maria Maddalena (later Santa Caterina a Magnanapoli in Quirinale during the Napoleonic occupation of Rome. When the French forces captured Pope Pius VI and closed the monasteries, Suor Anna continued her charity work, and wrote a poem in ottava rima, lamenting the situation in the city. The poem subsequently published in 1818 as Il Pianto delle Sacre Vergini Romane nella funesta Democrazia di Roma, composizione di Suor Anna Vittoria Domenicana in Santa Maria Maddalena, fra gli Arcadi Florinda Carisia. It included stanzas loosely translated as:
We are oppressed, and we leave nearby,/ Between starvation and sorrow, the afflicted discards;/ The holy edifice collapses, and the ruins/ Hold vigil with our dear grief;/ From whose penury we see no end,/Nor from our crying expect any fulfillment;/ Unless you, appeased at last, God of living,/ Sweet mercy, our pain can feel.
Passes the dove, and there is secure,/ Moaning softly within her nest;/ Back to their pens, the flock returns from pasture/ Without fear of treacherous betrayals./ We also entering these elected walls/ Believe we grasp firmly security;/ But instead face ambush, oh heaven! from the alliance/ Of the rapacious vulture and greedy wolf.
She was given the name Florinda Carisia among painters, and called later to paint the portrait of Popes Pius VII, and Leo XII, a copy of Guido Reni's the portrait of Beatrice Cenci, portraits of fellow Dominican nuns; and a portrait of the Queen of Etruria.
# Emma Gaggiotti Richards

Emma Gaggiotti Richards (1825 – 1912) was an Italian painter who was active in the United Kingdom. She completed five paintings for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

## Life

She was the daughter of Camillo and Angelina Gaggiotti. Born in Rome in 1825, she grew up in Ancona. She was taught to paint by Nicola Consorti. Her father, Camillo Gaggiotti was the minister of war in Rome.
On 15 February 1849 she married the journalist Alfred Bate Richards.
In 1850 Prince Albert gave three of her paintings, Faith, Hope, and Charity to his wife Queen Victoria. It is thought that the Queen saw the artist's self-portrait exhibited in 1851 at the Royal Academy and commissioned a second self-portrait which she gave to Prince Albert for Christmas in 1853. The following year Richards returned to Italy where she continued to paint. One of her works was a portrait of Alexander von Humboldt. From 1865 to 1904 she was in Florence.

# Caroline Bardua

Caroline Bardua (also Karoline Bardua; 11 November 1781 in Ballenstedt, Anhalt-Bernburg – 2 June 1864) was a German painter. She was one of the first middle-class women who was able to create an existence for herself as an independent artist.

## Life

Caroline Bardua was the daughter of Johann Adam Bardua, the valet of Alexius Frederick Christian, Duke of Anhalt-Bernburg, and Sophie Sabine Kirchner. Her first art instruction came from 1805 to 1807 under Hans Heinrich Meyer in Weimar. In Weimar she was also an acquaintance of the author Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, whose portrait she drew. From 1808 to 1811 she, together with Louise Seidler, was a student of Gerhard von Kügelgen in Dresden. In his workshop she and other students produced copies of paintings. She also became acquainted with Anton Graff and the then unknown Caspar David Friedrich. After the end of her apprenticeship with Kügelgen, Caroline and her sister, the singer Wilhelmine Bardua, traveled together to Paris and Frankfurt.
In 1819 the two sisters, who remained unmarried for their entire lives, arrived in Berlin, where they led a Salon. One of the guests was the poet August Friedrich Ernst Langbein. At first Caroline's work was much in demand in Berlin, but that situation soon changed for the worse. An exhibit in 1822, in which Caroline's works were shown together with works by Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow, was one of the main causes of her downfall. Her portraits of Princess Alexandrine of Prussia, the prince and other family members were harshly criticized in comparison with paintings by Schadow, who unlike Bardua had received academic training. In 1827 the two sisters had to give up their residence in Berlin for financial reasons. They then led an itinerant lifestyle, frequently moving between small cities such as Heidelberg or Krefeld, avoiding any competition. Both of the sisters continued to live together. After the death of Caroline in 1864 Wilhelmine published a biography of her sister and then died a year later in 1865. The biography, Das Jugendleben der Malerin Caroline Bardua was first published posthumously in 1874.

## Work

Caroline Bardua was primarily a portrait painter. The subjects of her portraits include Caspar David Friedrich, Carl Maria von Weber, Julius Eduard Hitzig, Niccolo Paganini, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, his wife Christiane von Goethe, and Johanna Schopenhauer.

# Ebba Tesdorpf

Ebba Tesdorpf (23 January 1851 – 22 February 1920) was an illustrator and watercolorist from Hamburg, Germany.

## Life

Tesdorpf came from a Hanseatic family. She was the daughter of businessman Hans Peter Friedrich Tesdorpf and Antoinette Karoline Mohrmann (formerly Abendroth). Her ancestors include her great-grandfather Peter Hinrich Tesdorpf (1751-1832) and his great-grandfather, Peter Hinrich Tesdorpf (1648-1723), both mayors of Lübeck.
She developed her talent for drawing in Hamburg. For a short time in 1898 she trained under Hermann Gross at the Academy in Düsseldorf. Her teachers were Mohrhagen Bernhard and Johann Theobald Riefesell who primarily taught drawing to women of the Hamburg high society.
At the suggestion of Justus Brinckmann and Alfred Lichtwark, Tesdorpf drew a documentation of the old Hamburg cityscape during the demolition phase in the 1880s and 1890s. Recording Hamburg became a passion for Ebba Tesdorpf. In her paintings she captured everything from the mundane scenes of Hamburg, its streets, the old parts of the town and the new, the city harbor and the canals that ran through it. With the death of her parents Tesdorpf became financially independent. Around 1894 Tesdorpf grew tired of life in Hamburg and moved to Düsseldorf, where she lived from then on. She donated her drawings as well as her purchased collection of valuable Hamburgensien (works of art pertaining to Hamburg) to the Hamburg Museum of Arts and Crafts. These pieces were later moved to the Museum of Hamburg History and provide a unique documentary of the appearance of the city of Hamburg in the second half of the 19th century. Tesdorpf considered it her "mission" to capture the "old Hamburg" in images - often structures destined for demolition in the years of urban renewal.
Her life's work included over 600 drawings, along with a few watercolors which she painted at the turn of the century. In Düsseldorf she mainly painted oil paintings. Tesdorpf died during a stay at a spa in Ahrweiler.
