in vienna, between her, isidore ra duncan and maude allen who did dances reminiscent of mata hari's andeclared the hands down winner of the battle of the tights. in 1914, she was in berlin, keeping company with various lovers and awaiting a stage engagement. there she began to feel more acutely the change that was coming over europe. the golden era of art, science and culture in france that began around 1890 and lasted until the beginning of the first world war, was an era of lavish spending and open luxury. in 1914, a darker, more puritanical mood was sweeping across europe, and the days of exuberant living were drawing to a close. when she told keephert, her old lover, of her upcoming engagement at the metropolitan he remarked, crypticcally, you will be there before i am and so will i, something great was happening that would transform the world in a process that would be anything but pleasant and late july, shortly before the invasion of serbia by the austrians, mata hari was dining in a room reserved for wealthy men in a fashionable restaurant with one of her lovers, the chief of po
