On Monday September 15th, 2019. Kathie Manthorne and I traveled from Paris to Moret-sur-Loing, a charming medieval town on the banks of a pretty tributary of the nearby Seine, just south of Fontainbleau.

View of Moret by Alfred Sisley

On the Quay des Laveuses, Moret-sur-Loing. Ile de France. Looking toward le Porte de Bourgogne and Pont de Moret

Toward the end of her life the home of Eliza Greatorex. One of her daughters occupied the property until her death in 1942

Some legwork, a meeting with Les Amis de Alfred Sisley & Les Amis de Moret arranged by une aeronaut de montgoflieres, a few chance encounters, and a bit of Celtic luck, brought us to the former doorstep of the peripatetic Donegal native.

Portrait of Eliza Greatorex by Thomas Boyle. Collection. National Academy of Design, New York.

Having tracked Eliza Pratt Greatorex’s path along the Hudson to Cragsmoor, to Pike’s Peak in Colorado, to Munich and Oberammergau, back to her birthplace in Ireland and so many of her haunts in New-York City and Paris, we finally zeroed in on her final (somewhat) permanent residence in Moret.

Next Monday, all will be revealed in a new blogpost at this site
