Let's first get to know Missia, who is so holy that she can have such a profound influence on Chanel.
Misia was born in 1872 in St. Petersburg to a polish family of art. Her grandfather was a cellist and her father was a sculptor who taught at the then Royal Academy of Tsarist Russia.
During her childhood, Liszt played Beethoven's famous songs for her.
As a teenager, she studied under Gabriel Foley and showed extraordinary talent for piano.
At the age of 21, she married the editor of the French avant-garde magazine "White Review", and since then, she has stepped into the avant-garde art circle in Paris as a "famous pianist", "editor's wife" and "magazine model", and started her gorgeous career of "art muse", "queen of salons" and "genius harvester".
At that time, the art world had a very high opinion of Missia. We will not elaborate on this.
She and Chanel met at a dinner party and were attracted to Chanel's unique temperament.
"With a cigarette between his fingers, dark brown hair, a young face, without a word, he was the most special one in the whole scene, exuding an irresistible charm."
After Chanel lost her lover and loved ones, Missia came to Chanel's side.
Misia kept taking her to various cultural salons whenever she had time.
In the torrent of the "Jazz Age" and "Avant-Garde", Missia made Chanel a friend of painters, musicians, poets, Russian grand dukes and even members of the European royal family.
Chanel believes that what really pulled Misia and her affection was the Trip to Italy (Missia's honeymoon trip for her third wedding).
She hadn't been to Italy before, and it was destined to be a journey of great significance.
One day, they arrived in Padua in northern Italy, a quiet and beautiful city where Chanel was once again in tears of missing her deceased.
So the Missias took her to the Basilica of San Antonio.
It is the first place of padua and a place of pilgrimage. They want Chanel to let go of her fears here, to reinvent her spirits, to find herself.
Chanel recalled that when she stood in front of the statue of the saint, surrounded by the sarcophagus of the admiral, the moment she closed her eyes, it seemed as if she had penetrated life.
She saw a man in front of her, his forehead resting on the slate floor, his face tired and sad, but also devout and determined.
At this moment, Chanel was suddenly touched.
She found that her grief was not worth mentioning in front of this mournful man, and her body was injected with the power of new life, allowing her to summon up the courage to live well.
"If a person's soul can not die, then her life will be brilliant."
The newlyweds led her out of her grief once and for all.
Next, Chanel ushered in her own "golden age"!
