Please note: Artists not classified as American in our database may have limited biographical data
compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Max Klinger was born in Leipzig, Germany in 1857. He was brought up in the correct milieu of provincial German society. He was aware of a split between his paintings and his more private graphics. Klinger the painter moved sedately between a professorship in Leipzig and his country vineyard, turning out the portraits and allegories his patrons sought and trying to ignore the themes that particularly haunted him: fetishism and an erotic consciousness of death. These themes dominate (showing 500 of 3150 characters). |
