She studied in Brno, then in Vienna, capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Together with the painter Aloïs Schönn, they visited Italy (the inspiration for our painting) and Egypt. She also married Hungarian painter Karoly Csúzy. She also studied in Munich in 1887 and 1888, as aesthetic exchanges between Germany and the countries of Central Europe were highly developed. She exhibited at Munich's Glass Palace from 1888 to 1924, in Vienna, Paris, Budapest and the United States. Our highly poetic painting is inspired by 15th- and 16th-century Italy and owes much to her trip to Italy with Schönn, the setting using a Mantegnesque architectural formula.
