Lovis Corinth (1858—1925) German artist, graphic artist, and also the author of several books and articles on painting. He made a significant contribution to German impressionism, although he also reached heights in the field of expressionism. During his lifetime, he was considered one of the leading artists in Germany and his work sold well. But during the Third Reich, his painting was declared "degenerate art." As a result, about 300 paintings by Corinth were seized from German galleries, some of them were destroyed and sold to Switzerland.
