Mia Münster

She took lessons from the artists Otto Weil and Richard Wenzel until 1919, when she moved to Halle and studied until 1920 at the Leipzig Academy of Visual Arts.

Subsequently, she returned home to Sankt Wendel again where she finally settled and worked as a free-lance artist.

She drew fashion illustrations and prepared designs and drawings for German entertainment magazines and satirical publications.

In addition she produced illustrations for extravagant costumes and clothing for the special occasions which were popular in the "Golden Twenties".

Münster captured the spirit of the times, marked initially by exuberance and later by insecurity and impoverishment, in many drawings, watercolors, and sketches.
