Louisa Lander

Louisa Lander (1826–1923) was an American artist.
== Biography ==

(Maria) Louisa Lander was born in 1826 in Salem, Massachusetts, the great-granddaughter of Elias Hasket Derby. She began sculpting in her hometown, then sought commissioned work in Washington, D.C. At age 19 she went to Rome where she studied with Thomas Crawford and worked as his assistant. She was part of a circle of American women expatriate artists in Italy at that time, including Harriet Hosmer, Anne Whitney, Edmonia Lewis, and Emma Stebbins, a group satirized by novelist Henry James as the "white marmorean flock." 〔Margaret Farrand Thorp, "The White Marmorean Flock," ''New England Quarterly'' 32:2 (June 1959).〕 After Crawford's death in 1857, Lander established her own studio. Among her patrons was fellow Salemite Nathaniel Hawthorne, who sat for a portrait bust.〔John Idol and Sterling Eisiminer, "Hawthorne Sits for a Bust by Maria Louisa Lander," ''Essex Institute Historical Collections'' 114 (October 1978), pp. 207-212.〕 Lander became close to the Hawthorne family in Italy but slanderous gossip about her character led the Hawthornes to break with her. According to the rumors, Lander had worked as a nude model. Her promising career floundered in the wake of the scandal.〔T. Walter Herbert, ''Dearest Beloved''〕 In the United States, she exhibited her lifesize marble statue of ''Virginia Dare'' (1859), representing the first child born of English parents in the Americas as an adult woman who had grown up among Native Americans and adopted their culture.〔(Gardens, Roanoke Island, history ).〕 Despite the sculpture's popularity, Lander could not find a purchaser for it. Critical praise from Elizabeth F. Ellet and a place in Ellet's ''Women Artists in All Ages and Countries'' (1859) were not enough to reignite her career. She died in Washington, D.C.
Lander's subjects included historical, mythological and literary figures, most of them women.
The majority of Lander's works are lost.〔Charlotte Streifer Rubinstein, ''American Women Artists'' (Boston: G. K. Hall and Co., 1982), p. 87.〕
