At the Royal Academy, 1903, she exhibited “Hark!  Hark! the Lark at Heaven’s Gate Sings,” which is a picture of a poor girl beside a table, on which she has thrown her work, and leaning back in her chair, with hands clasped behind her head, is lost in thought.

This artist writes that a list of her works would be too long and require too much time to write it.  They are in oils, pastel, and water-colors, with various applications of these to tapestries, etc.  She also gives lessons in these different methods of painting.  In a private collection in New York is her “Spanish Scene in the Eighteenth Century.”

She painted a “portrait of the late King Humbert, arranged in the form of a triptych surrounded by a wreath of flowers, painted from some which had lain on the King’s bier.”  She sent this picture to Queen Margharita, “who not only graciously accepted it, but sent the artist a beautiful letter and a magnificent jewel on which was the Royal Cipher.”

KAERLING, HENRIETTE. Born about 1832.  Daughter of the artist, J. T. Kaerling, who was her principal teacher.  She practised her art as a painter of portraits, genre subjects, and still-life in Budapest during some years before her marriage to the pianist Pacher, with whom she went to Vienna.  She there copied some of the works of the great painters in the Gallery, besides doing original work of acknowledged excellence.  In addition to her excellent portraits, she painted in 1851 “The Grandmother”; in 1852, “A Garland with Religious Emblems”; in 1855, “A Crucifix Wound with Flowers.”
