Marianne Stokes was an Austrian painter who lived and worked in England at the turn of the century with her husband Adrian Strokes, also a painter. The couple traveled extensively and were in close contact with other artists. Marianne Stokes' early, middle, and late work, in addition to a gradual shift away from oil painting toward tempera, shows a gradual change in her choice of subject matter and reveals various influences of contemporary trends. With the paintings for the publication of her trip to Hungary, she also left behind a work of ethnographic expressiveness.
Marianne Stoke's education took her from her native Graz to Munich and Paris. During a stay in 1883 at the Pont-Aven artists' colony, she met Adrian Stokes, whom she married in 1884. The artist couple moved to England, but traveled extensively and frequently sought contact with artist colonies such as St. Ives in Cornwall, where Marianne Stokes became a member of the Newly School, and Skagen, Denmark. Marianne and Adrian were among the driving forces of the art scene; Marianne's work reflects the impression left by her interactions with important artists of the time.
Marianne Stokes began her career in the environment of the Munich School, in the circle of her teacher Wilhelm von Lindenschmitt, Gabriel von Hackl, Otto Seitz and apparently Johann Strauss, who dedicated a polka-mazurka entitled "Light and Shadow" to her in 1875. An early work like "Träumendes Mädchen" from 1875 shows why. A first development towards the genre-like is shown by "Der Milchkrug" from 1884.
In France, the influence of painters such as Jules Bastien Lepage and Jean Francois Millet is noticeable. In this period fall mainly landscapes and genre scenes of rural naturalism such as "On the way to the fields (1885). The paintings created in the environment of the artists' colony on St. Ives and the stay in Skagen are also in this tradition. In "In a Field of Crowfoot," Stoke explores Impressionism in 1890. From the 1890s on, an interest in religious, mythical, and medieval-romantic themes prevails, revealing the influence of the Pre-Raphaelites. An early step in this direction is, for example, "The Frog Prince" after the Brothers Grimm from 1890, exemplified by works such as "Angel Entertains the Holy Child" (1893) or "Aucassin and Nicolette" (1898). Then, from 1895, Stokes turned more and more from oil painting to tempera, for example in "Madonna and Child" (1905). A trip to the Balkans by the couple was documented in 1909 with the book "Hungary", for which Marianne Stokes created pictures of ethnographic value. In 1912 Marianne undertook the design of a tapestry for William Morris. In 1908 she helped with the banners for the Suffragette March on Albert Hall. Marianne Stokes exhibited at the Paris Salon, several times for the Royal Academy, in Munich in 1890, and at the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. Her work can be found today mainly in private collections.
