Lovis Corinth (German, 1858 - 1925)
Born in East Prussia, Corinth studied in Munich and Paris. He lived in Munich for the first half of his career, moving to Berlin in 1901. After suffering a stroke in 1911 he was paralysed on the right side of his body and learned to paint with his left hand. This accentuated his move away from Impressionism towards a form of Expressionism characterised by vigorous brushwork and a frequently surprising interpretation of traditional subject matter.
