Fritz Mackensen

(German, 1866–1953)

Fritz Mackensen was a German Art Nouveau painter known as a founder of the Worpswede artists’ colony. Mackensen’s naturalistic, simple plein-air paintings of peasant life and landscape inspired other artists, and soon the Worpswede artist colony was established. Otto Friedrich Wilhelm Modersohn, another founder of the colony, and Hans am Ende became close friends of Mackensen’s and shared his Impressionistic style and interest in pastoral scenes. Born on April 8, 1866 in Greene, Germany, Mackensen received his formal training at the Düsseldorf Art Academy. During that time, he began spending his summers painting Worpswede. He exhibited at the Glaspalast in Munich and was awarded a gold medal for Sermon in the Moors. The artist died on May 12, 1953 in Bermen, Germany.
