Alma Mahler: or the Art of Being Loved by Francoise Giroud traces the glittering, storm-tossed life of the woman who inspired composers, painters and writers across fin-de-siècle Europe. This 1991 Oxford University Press hardcover biography delivers a brisk 169-page portrait of the muse who became a legend.

The book arrives gift-inscribed on the fly-leaf and shows only two discreet ink lines beside a single paragraph, leaving every other page clean and unmarked. Protected by its original dust jacket, the sturdy 215 mm cloth boards feel as crisp and shelf-ready as when they left the press.

Collectors of feminist biography, Viennese cultural history, or artist-muse narratives will appreciate this tightly focused, English-language edition. From a smoke-free home, this copy offers both readability and collectible charm without the usual ex-library flaws.
