In a brief career, cut short by her death from an embolism at the age of thirty-one, shortly after she gave birth to a child, Modersohn-Becker trained in Germany, traveled often to Paris, developed close friendships with the sculptor Clara Westhoff and the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, and became one of her generation's preeminent artists, helping introduce modernity to the twentieth century alongside such other painters as Picasso and Matisse. Marie Darrieussecq's triumphant and illuminating biography at once revives Modersohn-Becker's reputation as a significant figure in modernism and sheds light on the extreme difficulty women have faced in attaining recognition and establishing artistic careers"--Provided by publisher. 546 $a Translated from the French. 600 10 $a Modersohn-Becker, Paula, $d 1876-1907. 650 0 $a Women painters $z Germany $v Biography. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Hueston, Penny, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217024635.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72988C4E580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
