Kathe Kollwitz

Image
  On Monday, I got to go through Kathe Kollwitz Museum and see her painting. Her painting have this deep, depressing aura that captures your attraction and makes you ponder on her pieces. I can feel her emotion through the painting. Kathe Kollwitz is a German artist know for her etching and sculptures. She married Karl Kollwitz, a doctor, against her parents wishes because they thought getting married would ruin her art career. Instead it was the opposite. Karl was willing to take care of the kids while she etching. Kathe used to paint the working class before her son died in World War One. After that, her pieces focus  on grieving parents, especially mothers.  I think what makes contribution so important is how well she capture so much emotion in her work while  barely having anything on her pages. She was able to show the depressing side of World War Two. After the War, she was the first women ever to be a professor at the Prussian Academy of Arts (wikipedia) but d...

Maria Theresia

Image
  To be honest, Maria Theresia was so cool. First of all, "she gave birth to 16 kids in 19 years" (wikipedia). That's almost a kid a year (seriously impressive). Second, she was the only women to rule the Habsburg dominions. She was never really crowned empress of Austria but still held the power of an empress. She started ruling empire with a weak military and the empire was in a bad state (barely any money). She was never really taught how to rule an empire and didn't have knowledge about an army. Marie decide she had to step and rebuild Austria and she did. She is credit for regulating Australian empire. I really admire her because she barely had an experience to run an empire but didn't leet that get in her run. She did what she thought was best and it worked out in her favor. She an example to me that I shouldn't let anything get in my way. I think what makes her contribution important is that she cared about her empire and she made her empire stronger. S...
