Johanna Marie Fosie

Johanna Marie Fosie (24 March 1726 – 23 August 1764) was a Danish painter, the first professional native female artist in Denmark.

Johanna was the most talented of the siblings, and she signed and published illustrations in her father's drawing book in 1741.

Among the most frequent guests were the artists Johan Martin Preisler, Gustav de Lode and Michael Keyl, the painters Johan Hörner and Carl Gustaf Pilo, the sculptor Simon Carl Stanley, the poet Christian Frederik Wadskiær and several other writers.

In her parents' salon, she became a celebrated artist, was introduced into influential circles, and made many of her drawings and paintings there.

Of her drawings, several are preserved in Kobberstiksamlingen, on Rosenborg, in Kunstindustrimuseet and in private collections.
