Max Liebermann (1847-1935) played a prominent role in German artists turning to the achievements of French Impressionism. Also under the influence of Claude Monet and his colleagues, young painters in cities such as Munich and Berlin turned to a new pictorial language characterized by dynamic brushwork and vibrant colours.
