Gabriele Münter began her professional training at the Art School for Ladies in Düsseldorf, Germany; the School gave woman some art education and prepared art teachers. Gabriele was not quite satisfied with the training, but the doors of state art academies were closed for women at the time. In 1901 she came to Munich and entered the newly opened Phalanx School, the class of Wassily Kandinsky.
