Mary Fairchild MacMonnies Low
Mary Fairchild MacMonnies Low (1858–1946) was an American painter who specialized in landscapes, genre paintings, and portraits. She was born in New Haven, Connecticut, and studied at the St. Louis Art School (where she won a three years' scholarship), and in Paris at the Académie Julian and under Carolus Duran.〔 She had her own studio at 11 Impasse du Maine, (now part of Musée Antoine Bourdelle).
She married Frederick MacMonnies in 1888 and divorced him in 1909.〔http://72.9.254.50/view/people/asitem/items$0040null:277/0〕 She married Will H. Low that same year.
==Chicago mural==
In April 1892, Low (then MacMonnies) was approached by Sarah Tyson Hallowell, agent for Bertha Palmer, the prime mover behind the Women's Building at the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago, 1893, to paint one of the two mural tympana planned for the building's interior. The other was ''Modern Woman'', by Mary Cassatt. The topic of Low's mural was ''Primitive Women'' and it was by all accounts at the time deemed to be the more successful of the two.〔Weinmann, Jeanne Madeline, ''The Fair Women'', Academy Chicago, 1981, pp. 191–99, 316–19〕 These were to be the only murals by these two painters.〔Van Hook, Bailey, ''The Virgin & the Dynamo: Public Murals in American Architecture 1893-1917'', Ohio University Press, Athens, 2003 p. 22〕
She is represented in the Museum of Rouen, France, where she won a gold medal in 1903 and again in 1911. She also won a gold medal at Dresden in 1902, at Marseilles in 1905, and the Julia Shaw prize of the Society of American Artists in 1902. She became an associate of the National Academy of Design.
