Cartes a la tardor de la vida, Mela Muter i Rainer Maria Rilke.

The fervor with which the Viennese friend reads the poems of Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 - 1927), brings Mela Muter to discover her work and to be captivated forever more. They are in Vizcaya, shortly before the outbreak of the First World War. Many years later, in the spring of 1925, the artist and the poet will coincide in a musical evening in Paris. It will be the beginning of an intense and beautiful friendship relationship, stabbed in January 1927, by the death of Rilke. From the other side of the window, both share their passion for flowers, trees, nature or the sound of birds; there is time also to talk about painting and to confess an intimate desire: that Rilke accedes to be portrayed by her. Letters, but also poems offered as gifts, written notes by one and the other, and a deep recollection of his friendship gathered in Mela Muter's memoirs configure an exciting itinerary for his mutual admiration.
