Julie von Egloffstein (1792-1869), countess, canoness of Hildesheim, was a German artist, encouraged in her work by Goethe. ==Life== She was born on 12 September 1792 in Erlangen, daughter of Gottfried Friedrich Leopold Graf von und zu Egloffstein and his wife Henriette. She was one of the most beautiful and gifted women at the court of Weimar, and many of Goethe's poems bear witness to the lively interest which he took in her artistic development. She painted several portraits, including those of the Grand-Duchess of Saxe-Weimar and of Queen Theresa of Bavaria.〔 In 1829-32 she toured Alsace, Switzerland and Italy, spending a considerable amount of time in Rome. She went to Italy again in 1838-40, visiting Sorrento, Naples and Rome.〔 In addition to portraits, her works included ''Shepherds in the Roman Campagna'' (1835), ''Hagar in the Wilderness'', ''The Exposure of Moses'', ''Italian Popular Life'' and others, some of which were in the possession of the Emperor of Russia and of Queen Victoria.〔Bryan,1886-9〕 She died on 16 January 1869 at Marienrode.〔 File:Egloffsteintheresebayern.JPG|''Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen, queen of Bavaria'', 1836 File:Egloffstein Landschaft.jpg|''Landscape'' File:AugustVonGoethe.jpg|''August von Goethe'', son of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, now in the Goethe-Nationalmuseum 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Julie von Egloffstein」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
