Although she was born in Vienna, Emma Fordyce MacRae was raised and spent most of her life in New York City. She first enrolled at the Art Students League in 1911 with John Sloan, and then joined The New York School of Art with Kenneth Hayes Miller. Among her large body of works, MacRae painted landscapes the most, and particularly favored Central Park, where she would wander in every season as her studio was nearby at 12 West 69th Street.
Proceeds from the sale of this painting will go directly to Alzheimer's Research UK, Britain's leading dementia research charity, to fund further research into Alzheimer's and dementia-related diseases.
