Rosa Boner (Rosa Bonheur) - famous French animal painter (1822-1899). The first and only mentor of the girl in painting was her father - a landscape painter. From her youth, the future master knew that the defining theme of her work would be the image of animals. The paintings of the artist Rosa Bonier were professional, which was rare for the 19th century (male craftsmen prevailed in this area). The author exhibited her first work in 1841 at the Salon; the following year she presented her first sculpture to the public. In 1843, the work of the artist received a medal for 3rd place. Later she became the owner of the order from the French government, which led her to great success.
