"Born in Leipzig to a wealthy prominent family, and trained at the academy in Berlin, Max Klinger (1857-1920) was an equally gifted painter, printmaker, and sculptor. He worked in a naturalistic figurative style and from it developed an art that was polemical in intent, uncanny in effect, and often controversial in reception."
