Alice Raingo Hoschedé Monet (February 19, 1844 – May 19, 1911) was the wife of department store magnate and art collector Ernest Hoschedé[1] and later of the Impressionist painter Claude Monet.[2]

Early life

According to unsourced genealogical data reported by Michael Legrand, she was born Angélique Émilie Alice Raingo on February 19, 1844, in Paris to Belgian born Denis Lucien Alphonse Raingo and his wife Jeanne Coralie Boulade.[3][4]

Marriage to Ernest Hoschedé

After meeting her future daughter-in-law in 1863, Ernest Hoschedé's mother wrote of Alice: Шаблон:Blockquote

Her children (by Ernest Hoschedé) were Blanche (who married Claude's son, Jean Monet), Germaine, Suzanne, Marthe, Jean-Pierre, and Jacques.[5][6]

Life with the Monet family

In 1876, Ernest Hoschedé commissioned Monet to paint decorative panels for the Château de Rottembourg[7] and several landscape paintings.[8] The four panels representing Les Dindons (The Turkeys)[9][10], l'Étang à Montgeron (Pond at Montgeron),[11][12] Coin de Jardin à Montgeron (A Corner in the Garden at Montgeron)[13] and La Chasse (The Hunt)[14][15] were however never installed in the rotunda of the château.[16]

According to the Nineteenth-century European Art: A Topical Dictionary, it may have been during this visit that Monet began a relationship with Alice and her youngest son, Jean-Pierre, may have been fathered by Monet.[17] [nb 1]

"Les Dindons" ("The Turkeys"), painted by Claude Monet in 1877, was one of four paintings commissioned by Ernest Hoschedé to adorn the salon of his Château de Rottembourg. Now in the Musée d'Orsay.[19]

Ernest Hoschedé went bankrupt in 1877.[20] Ernest, Alice, and their children moved into a house in Vétheuil with Monet, Monet's first wife Camille, and the Monet's two sons, Jean and Michel.[21] Ernest spent increasing lengths of time in Paris.[18] He then lived in Paris and worked at le Voltaire.[22]

There are times when Ernest Hoschedé returns to visit his wife and children at the successive Monet households of Vétheuil, Poissy and Giverny. During those times Monet leaves the household. The separation from Alice, though, leaves Monet greatly distressed, experiencing nightmares, and generally unable to paint.[23]

Before the Monet and Hoschedé families had moved to Poissy, Ernest Hoschedé had refused to pay his share of the upkeep for Alice and the children.[24] In 1886 he showed up and demanded that his wife and children return with him to Paris, but Alice remained with Monet.[25]

After Camille Monet's death in 1879, Monet and Alice (along with the children from the two respective families) continued living together at Poissy and later at Giverny.[21] Still married to Ernest Hoschedé and living with Claude Monet, the Le Gaulois newspaper in Paris declared that she was Monet's "charming wife" in 1880.[26]

Ernest Hoschedé died in 1891 and Alice agreed to marry Monet in 1892.[27]

Alice died on 19 May 1911.[28] Her disappearance deeply affected the painter. On the night of her death, he wrote to his friend, Gustave Geffroy, a French art historian and novelist: Шаблон:Blockquote This letter is on display in one of the rooms of Fondation Monet in Giverny.[29]
