Max Liebermann was born on 20 July 1847 in Berlin, Germany. He was one of the main representatives of Impressionism in Germany and is known for his landscapes, portraits and scenes of everyday life. Liebermann studied at the Weimar Academy of Arts and later in Paris, where he was influenced by French Impressionists such as Claude Monet and Édouard Manet.
His work stands out for capturing the atmosphere and light of his surroundings, most often depicting garden scenes and everyday bourgeois life. Liebermann was also an advocate of modern art and became president of the Berlin Academy of Arts.
Throughout his life, he faced challenges, including resistance from conservative critics, but he remained an influential figure until his death on 8 February 1935. Today, Liebermann is remembered as one of the great masters of German Impressionism.
