A blog dedicated to the great, underappreciated Polish/French post impressionist artist Maria Mela Muter (1876-1967.)
After many years researching and collecting works by Mela Muter (full name - Maria Melania Mutermilch, née Klingsland) I will be posting biographical items and reproductions of her work here, so that they can be enjoyed in context.
There are many problems with Muter's legacy - she repainted many of her works, and neglected to sign or date others. Most of the works here are provisionally dated. I am interested in any information as to the origin or dates of any of these works, as well as general information on the life and work of Mela Muter. Email: artinconnu at gmail dot com.
Interested in little known and forgotten artists, the studios, the ephemera, the artists materials and the stories behind the paintings and their creation.
