Abstract
ABSTRACT The artist and art historian Countess Eva Callimaki-Catargi is best known as the subject for two magnificent oil paintings by Henri Fantin-Latour, one painting located in Brussels and the other in Otterlo outside of Amsterdam. Few of the museum visitors viewing these portraits realize that the person depicted in them was a significant presence in French, Russian and Romanian art circles during the Belle Époque in Paris. Traces of her remarkable and distinguished life can be found at Stanford University, in the Hoover Institution Archives, in materials donated by the family of her son, the Russian diplomat Nicolas de Basily.
