It is part of the 2021 collection, inspired by female artists. It was the painter Rosa Bonheur who inspired the Rosa creative notebook. Inspired by The Rosa notebook is inspired by the artist Rosa Bonheur, a famous French animal painter. Rosa, whose real name is Marie Rosalie Bonheur, was born on March 16, 1822 in Bordeaux. Her father is a drawing teacher and will take her into his studio some time after her mother's death. She reveals great artistic abilities. It was in 1839 that she began to study the representation of animals which she would make her specialty. She exhibited many times at the Salon and obtained several medals and an order for a painting: Le plowing nivernais (see the last photo of the product sheet). This one is so successful that it will be exhibited at the Luxembourg Museum. It is now kept at the Musée d'Orsay. At the 1853 salon, she obtained the immense honor of being authorized to exhibit at all the salons without prior examination by the jury. She is the first woman to receive the Legion of Honor. She has an international reputation and tours in Belgium and England. Théophile Gautier will say of her “with her, there is no need for gallantry; she does art seriously, and you can treat her like a man. Painting is not for her a variety of petit point embroidery”. Which shows its success but also the misogynistic society of the time. She died on May 25, 1899 and was buried in Père Lachaise.
