Timeline
Maria Weigert Brendel (December 18, 1902–1994) was a German expert on classical art.
She studied at the University of Heidelberg, before being pulled out of the University by her father, and being forced to flee the country to avoid Nazi persecution.
Later in her life, she posthumously published a number of Otto Brendel's works.
Born to director of the state court Erich Weigert and the daughter of a banker, Maria Weigert was the first girl to attend a normally boys only German Gymnasium.
She went on to study at the University of Heidelberg, studying with Professor Ludwig Curtius.
When she was almost finished with her degree, while writing her dissertation on the Ludovisi Throne, her father discovered her relationship with Brendel and pulled her out of the university, ending her doctoral career.
In 1931, they moved near the University of Erlangen for Otto's new position.
Their daughter, artist and painter Cornelia Brendel Foss, was born there in 1931.
Cornelia married musician and composer Lukas Foss.
In 1932, the family moved to Rome for Otto's position as First Assistant at the German Archaeological Institute, but in 1936, Otto was dismissed from his post because he was married to Maria, a non-Aryan.
Maria moved back to Berlin with Cornelia, living under a false name so nobody suspected her Jewish identity.
On September 3, 1939, Maria and Cornelia left Germany and immigrated to St. Louis, Missouri, where Otto was already living.
In 1956, they moved to New York City, where both Maria and Otto were actively involved in the Archaeology Club.
After Otto died in September 1973, Maria began to publish and distribute a number of Otto's unfinished works.
She translated The Symbolism of the Sphere from German into English, and an article on "Iphigeneia in Tauris in Euripides and Goethe" from English to German.
She arranged for Emeline Richardson to complete his book Etruscan Art, and later for Francesca Serra Ridgway to write the second edition.
She was involved in the posthumous publication of Festschrift in his honor.
