F - 2935 | Ecstasy by Mary Sharratt

Gustav Klimt gave Alma her first kiss.
Gustav Mahler fell in love with her at first sight and proposed only a few weeks later.
Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius abandoned all reason to pursue her.

Poet and novelist Franz Werfel described her as “one of the very few magical women that exist.”
