Max Slevogt was a German Impressionist painter, printmaker, and illustrator. Best known for his involvement in the Berlin Succession, along with other German Impressionists Lovis Corinth and Max Liebermann, Slevogt painted en plein air.

Born on October 8, 1868 in Landshut, Germany, he studied at the Munich Academy and later at the Académie Julian in Paris, where he became acquainted with the works of Édouard Manet. Slevogt spent time in Berlin and Vienna and also made painting excursions to Egypt and Italy. The artist died on September 20, 1932 in Leinsweiler, Germany. Today, his works are in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Neue Pinakothek in Munich, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Cleveland Museum of Art, among others
