In this story, it is not Walter Gropius who is in the spotlight, but rather the mother, lover, wife, and all the other women surrounding the master. But don't worry - Ursula Muscheler does not peep through the keyhole at overly private scenes; instead, she looks behind the scenes of the great architect at his beloved, intelligent, educated, and industrious female assistants: Manon Gropius, Alma Mahler, Lily Hildebrandt, Maria Benemann, and Ise Gropius. The saying goes that behind every successful man stands a strong woman. The unfortunate twist is that these exceptionally talented women lived their lives in the shadow of Gropius and other men, which is the poignant point of this affectionate sketch.
