  • Emilie Louise Flöge (30 August 1874 - 26 May 1952, Austria, Vienna)
    From muse and lifelong companion to painter Gustav Klimt, to fashion innovator and forgotten icon - Emilie Flöge was much more than a character in a painting and research shows us the valuable role she played in Vienna’s social and cultural life in the early 1900’s. So, let's get to know more about this fascinating and complex woman of the Viennese Secession!

    Appreciate you mentioned it, because Flöge may be considered the Viennese Chanel (and also, let's not forget Lanvin, Paquin and Vionnet, all superbly talented women, determined to make fashion comfortable though each in her own style). Voice/research/presentation is very good - thank you.

    This video left me asking why we've not heard more about this amazing, trailblazing woman. So interesting and informative about two dedicated artists.

      Somehow, history forgot about her, but we can learn about her life and work and, this way, we give back some of what was taken away from her :) Thank you for watching, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

    Amazing woman! "The Painted Kiss" is a beautiful historical fiction novel about their relationship that seems very well researched.

    Absolutely love Emilie Floge. My dream would be to travel back in time to have tea with her and Margaret Macdonald Macintosh. How tragic that none of her creations have survived.

    To be a muse is a sad unrewarding job-

      So true and it certainly wasn't rewarding for Emilie, but hopefully she gets the deserved recognition nowadays

    • @LayersInArt
      @LayersInArt  5 місяців тому +1

      Yes, that's correct, Emilie, not Emily. From what I've seen, though, its just more common to use Emily for the English speaking community :) Thanks for your comment and for watching! :)

    14 illegitimate children ?? What was he thinking ? What a scandal . I had no idea he was so scandalous. He knocked up all those women, how awful.😖😖😖😜😜😯😯😮

    • @LayersInArt

      Oh, yes, he was very scandalous indeed and Vienna adored him 🤷...it would be interesting to know if at least one of his many children inherited his great painting talent :)
