Imens i livet hos Rosa Bonheur

Hele livet
  1. 1848

    First medal and a 3,000-franc state commission

    Bonheur won a first medal for “Oxen and Bulls of the Cantal”, which brought her a 3,000-franc state commission — for “Ploughing in the Nivernais”.

  2. 1849

    “Ploughing in the Nivernais” at the Salon

    Painted for the government, the picture was shown at the Salon and won a First Medal — Bonheur's first major success (other sources give that honour to “The Horse Fair”).

  3. March 1849

    Death of her father, Raymond Bonheur

    Her father died, and Rosa took his place as teacher at the free drawing school for girls. She often told her pupils: “Follow my advice, and I will make you Leonardos in skirts.”

  4. marts 1849 – 1860

    Employed by: École nationale gratuite de dessin pour les jeunes filles

  5. 1850s

    Police permission to wear trousers

    Women in Paris were forbidden to wear trousers without police permission, so Bonheur had to apply for it: trousers were her preferred attire for the sheep and cattle markets where she studied her animals.
