Max Slevogt was a renowned German painter and printmaker celebrated for his contributions to Impressionism and later explorations of Expressionism. His vibrant, atmospheric works often depict landscapes, gardens, and scenes of leisure, capturing the interplay of light and color. Slevogt, a key figure in the Berlin Secession, played a central role in shaping early 20th-century German art. The accompanying photographs capture intimate moments of his life, including him painting outdoors, close-up portraits, a bust of the artist, and his funeral procession, offering a poignant glimpse into his legacy. – Small scratch on one print, another with silver mirroring in edges, otherwise all in good to very good condition.
