She was a successful painter under her birth name Einar Wegener. After transitioning in 1930, she changed her legal name to Lili Ilse Elvenes and stopped painting; she later adopted the surname Elbe. She died from complications following a uterus transplant. The UK and US versions of her semi-autobiographical narrative were published posthumously in 1933 under Man into Woman: An Authentic Record of a Change of Sex.

Synopsis.

Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, in 1926.

Gerda Vayner, a portrait painter, lives with her husband, Einar, a landscape painter.

Gerda's fame as a painter did not extend to Einar.

2)

One day, the model for a painting Gerda was working on (a female dancer) could not come, so she asked Einer to model his legs.

Seeing this, Gerda jokingly dressed Einer up as a woman named "Lili" and took her to a party of his acquaintance.

However, she is perplexed to see Lili befriending a man.

3)

However, Einer continued to meet men secretly, as Lili did after that.

Gerda painted a picture of Lili as a model and received recognition from an art dealer.

To Einar, Gerda wants him to be a man before her.

However, Einar only replied, "I will try my best."

4)

He confides that the incident at the party was not the reason for his cross-dressing.

Soon, Einer spends more and more time as Lili, a woman, and he stops painting as well.

Gerda takes Einer to see a doctor, but he is treated only as mentally ill.

With Gerda's business for his paintings, the couple moved to Paris.

In Paris, there was Einer's childhood friend, Hans, an art dealer.

Gerda confides the truth about Einer.

Hans, who heard the story, introduces Einer to several doctors to help Gerda.

However, he was only able to diagnose Einer as mentally ill.

This doctor tells Einer that there is no precedent for gender reassignment surgery.
