Informationen zum Autor Barbara Gaehtgens specializes in 17th Century Dutch and French art, 18th Century art theory and 19th Century German and American art. She has taught at the Technische Universität Berlin and Princeton University and has been affiliated as a scholar with CASVA, Washington, National Gallery of Art, and the Centre Allemand d'histoire de l'art in Paris.

Theorie der klassischen Bildgattungen (2003), and Richelieu patron des arts (2009). Her present research centers on 17th Century French political iconography. Klappentext Although Max Liebermann (1847-1935) began his career as a realist painter depicting scenes of rural labor, Dutch village life, and the countryside, by the turn of the century, his paintings had evolved into colorful images of bourgeois life and leisure that critics associated with French impressionism. During a time of increasing German nationalism, his paintings and cultural politics sparked numerous aesthetic and political controversies. His eminent career and his reputation intersected with the dramatic and violent events of modern German history from the Empire to the Third Reich. The Nazis' persecution of modern and Jewish artists led to the obliteration of Liebermann from the narratives of modern art, but this volume contributes to the recent wave of scholarly literature that works to recover his role and his oeuvre from an international perspective.Marion Deshmukh is the Robert T.
