(1898-1980)
She was born as Maria Gorska in Warsaw, at the time part of the Russia Empire.
Her rich family sent her for a brief period to a Swiss boarding scholl and after that, with her gradmother, both spent a few time doing a tour in Europe.
She was a very charmante woman with vivacity and a certain magnetism and in 1916 married with Tadeusz Lempicki in St Petersburg.
The war and revolution forced them to fled to Paris and there Maria reborn as Tamara. And her artistic life reached the top while her private life was a bohemian life.
In 1925 she enjoyed a great success in Milan with demands for singular portraits.
She married, for the second time in 1933, with the Baron Kuffner and both left Paris to go to the United States living during ten years in Beverly Hills before moving to New York.
In 1962 her husband died and she stuck down with a depression and moved to Hustoun living a few time with her daughter.
Then moved for the last time. She went to Cuernavaca in Mexico living there until her death in 1980.
She said:" I live life in the margins of society, and the rules of normal society don't apply to those who live on the fringe."
