Who was Emilie Flöge? Muse to painter Gustav Klimt, avant-garde designer, forgotten icon!
Ойын-сауық
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!

Thank you for watching and writing your kind thoughts! She was extremely talented and deserving of world-wide recognition in her own right!
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!
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.

She was also a true artist ! And very beautiful.
Amazing woman! "The Painted Kiss" is a beautiful historical fiction novel about their relationship that seems very well researched.
I agree that your research, presentation and voiceover were excellent. Enjoyed it very much, thank you.

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.

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! :)

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 :)
She has an afro!!!!
He was very talented but he looked like he had poor hygiene habits,like not bathing.!!!
