Walter Gropius
While Gropius had an eventful life that grew in every aspect he challenged himself in he did have some downfalls. In 1919 his wife and himself divorced after having an affair with German author Franz Werfel. At the end of his life her certainly wasn’t alone though, in 1933 he made a request that when he passed that his friends and family would not mourn for him, but celebrate the life he had. So when he passed at the old age of 86, 77 of his friends met up at Cambridge two days after his passing and drank champagne in his memory.
