Quotes about Marie Bashkirtseff

1 Sourced Quote

The journal of Marie Bashkirtseff [woman-painter born in the Ukraine, who died very young; her Journal was published c. 1895]. Her thoughts enter my bloodstream and make me very sad. I say as she doers: if only I could accomplish something! My existence seems humiliating to me. We don't have the right to strut around, not until we've made something of ourselves.

Paula Modersohn-Becker
