Johannes Bilders was fully twenty-five years older than his wife, and the failure of both his physical and mental powers in his last days required her absolute devotion to him. In spite of this, the garden studio was not wholly forsaken, and nearly every day she accomplished something there. After her husband's death she had a long illness.
The advice of Van de Sande-Bakhuyzen greatly encouraged her, and the candid and friendly criticism of Bosboom inspired her with the courage to exhibit her work in public. In the summer of 1875, in Vorden, she met Johannes Bilders, under whose direction she studied landscape painting.
Pupil of Van de Sande-Bakhuyzen, Bosboom, and Johannes W. Bilders. Settled in Oosterbeck, and painted landscapes from views in the neighborhood. This artist was important, and her works are admired especially by certain Dutch artists who are famous in all countries. These facts are well known to me from good authority, but I fail to find a list of her works or a record of their present position.
Made a Knight of the Order of Orange-Nassau, 1896. Born in Amsterdam about 1851. A pupil of her father until his death, when she became a student under Gabriel Max, in Munich, for a year. Returning to Amsterdam, she was much encouraged by Israels, Bilders, and Bosboom, friends of her father.
Containing names previously omitted and additions. *<b>BILDERS, MARIE VAN BOSSE.</b> This celebrated landscape painter became an artist through her determination to be an artist rather than because of any impelling natural force driving her to this career. After patient and continuous toil, she felt that she was developing an artistic impulse.
The lady artists who have best held their own with the stronger sex include, in addition to those named, Mme Bilders van Bosse, who paints woods and leafy groves with striking power; and the late Mme. Vogels-Roozeboom, who found her inspiration in the flora of Nature. Second to her, though not so well known by far, came Mlle W. van der Sande Bakhuizen.
And to these must be added others of high merit: Bilders, Scheffer, Bosboom, Rochussen, Bakhuysen, Du Chattel, De Haas and Haverman. The traditional representation of the Dutchman as stolid, unemotional, wholly absorbed in trade and material interests, is a caricature.
A small annuity was purchased for her, which, in addition to the few orders she received, supported her until her death at the age of sixty-six. Her miniatures have been seen in loan collections in recent years. Her portrait of herself, on ivory, was exhibited in such a collection at South Kensington. <b>BILDERS, MARIE.</b> Family name Van Bosse. Born in Amsterdam, 1837; died in Wiesbaden, 1900.

This artistic friendship resulted in the marriage of the two artists, and in 1880 they established themselves in Oosterbeck. Here began the intimate study of the heath which so largely influenced the best pictures by Frau Bilders.
