Teresa Feoderovna Ries

Teresa Feoderovna Ries (30 January 1866, Budapest[1] – 16 July 1956, Lugano)[2] was a Russian-born Austrian sculptor and painter.

[4] She sought out Edmund Hellmer as a mentor; at first he refused, saying that "it was pointless to teach women since they married anyway".

[4] Prince Aloys of Liechtenstein offered her the use of a suite of rooms beside his own picture gallery as a studio.

[4] Ries published her memoir, Die Sprache des Steines (The Language of Stone) in 1928.

[3] Her work was included in the 2019 exhibition City Of Women: Female artists in Vienna from 1900 to 1938 at the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere.
