Marie Müller (artist)

[2] In 1872, she attended the preparatory figure drawing classes at the Kunstgewerbeschule (now the University of Applied Arts), under the direction of Michael Rieser.

[2] For the next ten years, she worked with her sister, Bertha, as a portrait painter in the studios of their brother, Leopold, at the Academy of Fine Arts.

[3] The city of Vienna commissioned her to paint a portrait of the novelist, Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach, in 1891.

[2] Around 1900, she became one the founding members of Acht Künstlerinnen [de], which had the goal of making works by female artists more accessible to the public.

The other original members were Olga Wisinger-Florian (who began the organizing process), Marie Egner, Marianne von Eschenburg, Susanne Granitsch [de], Eugenie Breithut-Munk, Teresa Feoderovna Ries, and Bertha von Tarnóczy.
