Biography: Max Slevogt, together with Max Liebermann and Lovis Corinth formed the triumvirate of German Impressionists. Based in Berlin and Munich, Slevogt was a regular exhibitor at the Berlin Secession. In the 1920s Slevogt spent many summers in the Palatinate, where he enjoyed painting en plein air. Slevogt studied at the Munich Academy from 1885-1889 and at the Académie Julian in Paris in 1889. However, it wasn't until Slevogt visited the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris where he saw the works of the French Impressionists that his painterly style changed dramatically. Until 1900 Slevogt's paintings were executed in a sombre, naturalistic style. Following his visit to the exhibition Slevogt increasingly turned to plein air landscape painting, developing a new, impressionist style of painting with vivid colours and thick, lively brush strokes. These became the hallmark of his mature style.
