...Marie Wandscheer being the painting teacher of Fanny Psicha.... Marie Wandscheer until very recently was a somewhat obscured, neglected and forgotten painter but recently some new attention was brought to her. After initially painting nudes, which was en-vogue for lady painters in those days, she was persuaded to try "gingerpots and flowers" by painter Jan Voerman Sr. (1857-1941).... Marie entered the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam in 1876. At first she lived and worked in Amsterdam, but later moved with her family and sister, who also painted, to the provincial town of Ede around 1895. In Ede she met again her old Amsterdam Academy classmate, painter, photographer and etcher Willem Witsen. Witsen, returned from his stay in London and just married, taught her how to use the etching needle....

Wandscheer was taught by Valentijn Bing and was a student of August Allebé at the Rijksakademie for 10 years. From 1892-95 she lived in Nieuwer-Amstel, and then moved to Ede where she lived for the rest of her life. Here she met the painter and etcher Willem Witsen, with whom she studied and was friends. She was also friends with Lizzy Ansingh, one of the Amsterdam Joffers. Wandscheer is considered to belong to this group. She painted many flowers, but also figure pieces (especially women), portraits and interiors. She also made pastels and etchings. Wandscheer was a member of, among others, Arti et Amicitiae and Pulchri. During her life, several exhibitions of her work were held in Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and Ede.... After her death, only a few exhibitions of her work were held in Ede, the last time in the Historisch Museum Ede in 2006 under the title Marie Wandscheer: On the Wall Again.
