Franconia and lived for a long time in the area ofFrankfurt . In the past years she spends her life partly in the southern Tuscany, Italy.Emphasis in the work of Brigitta Westphal are humans and nature; the biographic component plays thereby a large role.
The Work on the Austrian writer
Robert Musil ’s "The Man Without Qualities " became a key experience for the painter, out of which two cycles with 14 oil pictures each developed.Since 1986 the illustration of literature belongs to an important component of her work. Breaks, which appear between the work phases, result from the changes between Germany and Italy.
