Excerpt from Gabriele M�nter, Murnau to Stockholm (1908-1918): November 22 Through December 1961 Now 84 years old and the Doyenne of Fauve painting, Gabriele Munter, since 1931, has rarely left her house in Murnau, where she lives in blithe serenity, surrounded by the things she loves, and where she Still paints. Her bright eyes Still have the joyousness and vitality of a child. Her hands are finely shaped, with slender fingers. Spread among the old-fashioned furniture are the carved animals, the figurines, the vases that we know from her Still-lifes. A small sculptured head of an old woman, done during the early years in Munich, blends unassumingly with the surroundings. Her chests hold a variety of treasures: pearl embroideries made on rainy days from designs of Kandinsky; her own musical compositions with the nores set down neatly in her fine handwriting.
