Biography

She was the daughter of Jean Georges Agutte. In 1893 she joined Gustave Moreau's classes as a free pupil, and retained his teachings on the freedom of mind and independence.[2] She also met Matisse and Georges Rouault among others.[2]

Agutte was a non-conformist and the only woman to attend the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts. She was a member of the Fauvist movement and a sculptor. Her studio was in Bonnières-sur-Seine.

In 1888, she married the critic Paul Flat. After her divorce in 1894, she married Marcel Sembat in 1897.[2]

From 1904 on, she exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants and participated in the Salon d'Automne.

After her husband's death she wrote on a note: "Voilà douze heures qu’il est parti. Je suis en retard" (He left 12 hours ago, I'm late) and committed suicide, dying in Chamonix on 5 September 1922. Knowing the importance of their collection, the Conservator of the Museum of Grenoble, Andry-Farcy, made every effort to obtain it. A retrospective was presented at the end of December 2003.

A street is named after her in the 18th arrondissement of Paris.

Tapestry

She supplied several models to the Aubusson National School of Decorative Art. A mountain landscape woven by her exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs in 1921. At the International Exhibition of Decorative Arts that held in Paris in 1925, the Aubusson National School of Decorative Art presented Georgette`s fireplace screen with a bunch of marigolds and Aubusson tapestry that woven in 1923, as well as mounted on a wood on its stand at the Grand Palais.

gollark: ```lua if settings.get "potatOS.removable" then potatOS.actually_really_uninstall = function(hedgehog) if hedgehog == "76fde5717a89e332513d4f1e5b36f6cb" then print "Hedgehog valid. Deleting potatOS main code." fs.delete "/autorun" else error "Invalid hedgehog! Expected 76fde5717a89e332513d4f1e5b36f6cb." end end end```Also this bit, optionally.
gollark: ```lua begin_uninstall_process = function() print "Please wait. Generating semiprime number..." local p1 = findprime(math.random(2, 100000)) local p2 = findprime(math.random(2, 100000)) local num = p1 * p2 print("Please find the prime factors of the following number:", num) write "Factor 1: " local f1 = tonumber(read()) write "Factor 2: " local f2 = tonumber(read()) if (f1 == p1 and f2 == p2) or (f2 == p1 and f1 == p2) then term.clear() term.setCursorPos(1, 1) print "Accepted. Moving startup." fs.delete "old-potatOS-startup" fs.move("startup", "old-potatOS-startup") print "Press any key to continue." os.pullEvent "key" os.reboot() else print("Factors", f1, f2, "invalid.", p1, p2, "expected.") end end```This bit is the uninstaller.
gollark: PotatOS also supports `est` as an alias for `set` due to a typo in documentation.
gollark: ```lua process.spawn(function() local signs = {peripheral.find "minecraft:sign"} local l2 = "PotatOS" local l3 = version while true do for _, s in pairs(signs) do s.setSignText("\167k" .. randbytes(16), l2, l3, "\167k" .. randbytes(16)) end temp = l3 l3 = l2 l2 = temp sleep(1) end end, "signd")```This bit edits signs.
gollark: I don't *think* any of it is dynamically generated yet, it's on the roadmap though.
