Edward Hopper for comparison, was 41 when he met Josephine, still working on illustrating Magazine covers and hadn’t sold a painting in over 10 years.

Without her greasing the wheels of his career, pushing him into new mediums and helping him refine his technique, even asking Brooklyn Museum curators to exhibit some of his works, Edward Hopper would not be the artist of note we know today.

And for this, she was dismissed by her husband as a “little pleasant talent,” telling her no one would appreciate her work.
