Born in Paris, 12 September 1812, she exhibited her work under her maiden name, Serret, although later she did so using her married name, Cabart.[1][2]

Marie-Ernestine was the sister of mathematician Joseph-Alfred Serret. In 1845, she married Charles-François Cabart,[3] with whom she had three sons including Charles-Maurice Cabart, who became a deputy and then a senator of Manche.[2]

She was a pupil of artist Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot (who was a student of famed portraitist Vigée Le Brun). Serret worked in pastels and oils and her subjects ranged from portraits and still lifes to religious scenes.[1]

Between 1834 and 1849, several of her portraits and studies were shown including Meditation, Jewess, Italian Woman, Carmelite Nun and Christ at the House of Simon.[1] She also participated in the 8th annual exhibition of the Museum of Rouen in 1840.[2]

In 1884, she died in Paris and was buried in the cemetery of La Glacerie in Manche, northwestern France.[4][5][2]

gollark: I mean, you could do it, but I don't see why you would want to.
gollark: I mean, you couldn't parallelize that.
gollark: Maybe. That's a different thing. I don't know if they would have an option to directly submit things to hash, and it would be slow.
gollark: It's not a significant difference, you can have a good RNG with just a bunch of XORs and bitshifts.
gollark: Otherwise lots would work on the same problem which would be inefficient.
