All the leading figures of French Impressionism found their way to the gallery of Paul Cassirer (18711926). This richly illustrated volume traces the footsteps of the art dealer from Berlin whose engagement in cultural circles and work as a gallerist contributed decisively to Impressionisms eventual acceptance and appreciation in Germany. Degas, Cézanne, Manet, Monet and van Gogh that these great names are found in so many German collections today is due in particular to Paul Cassirer. The Berlin art dealer was also committed to German Impressionism, supporting Berlin Secession painters such as Liebermann, Corinth, and Slevogt and championing avant-garde artists including Munch, Barlach, Kirchner, and Modersohn-Becker. This volume presents outstanding works of Impressionism and classical modernism that found their way into German museums and collections thanks to Cassirers influence.Artists: Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, August Gaul, Vincent van Gogh, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Georg Kolbe, Max Liebermann, Édouard Manet, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Claude Monet, Gabriele Münter, Auguste Renoir, Max Slevogt
