Summary:
One of the great tastemakers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Eugenia Huici Arguedas de Errazuriz (1860-1951) was born into a wealthy Chilean mining family in Bolivia. She married amateur painter Jose Tomas Errazuriz, and while honeymooning in Europe the couple quickly became favourites in a group of artists that included John Singer Sargent and Auguste Rodin. After Cocteau introduced Errazuriz to Pablo Picasso in 1916, she would become Picasso'ss most devoted patron. This publication traces Errazuriz's life and the broader subject of South Americans in turn-of-the-century Europe through the many portraits of Errazuriz and a selection of artworks from her extraordinary personal collection. Exhibition: Dixon Gallery and Gardens, Memphis, USA (28.1-8.4.2018).
