Lovis Corinth, born in Tapiau, East Prussia, in 1858 and died in Zandvoort in 1925, studied in Königsberg, Munich, Antwerp, and Paris. Settling in Berlin in 1901, he was a member of the Berlin Secession and its chairman in 1911/12 and 1915; his work combines elements of German Impressionism with the expressive features of his late work. In addition to painting, he created an extensive printmaking oeuvre of etchings and lithographs, including biblical and mythological series; in 1917, Karl Schwarz published a catalog raisonné of his graphic works. After acquiring a house in Urfeld, he produced over sixty Walchensee paintings starting in 1919.
In the collection: "Walchensee with Jochberg," "Cain, where is your brother Abel?", "Adam Gives Eve the Apple."
Technique: Etching and steel engraving.
