          Clara Josephine Wieck Schumann (September 13, 1819 – May 20, 1896) was one of the most prominent pianists of the Romantic music era as well as a composer, and wife of composer Robert Schumann.

          Her marriage to Robert Schumann had a profoundly stabilizing effect on her husband's psychological welfare and professional accomplishments. A gifted pianist, she nonetheless sacrificed her personal artistic aspirations to support her husband in the spirit of "true love." After Robert's death in 1856, she adopted the role of a "professional widow" often wearing mourning clothes as a tribute to her husband's memory.
