from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Max Hein-Neufeldt (born October 7, 1874 in Elbing ; † February 1, 1953 in Dachau ) was a German painter, representative of late German impressionism .

Live and act

Before turning full-time to painting, he worked for ten years in a leather goods store in Berlin. Max Hein-Neufeldt received his artistic training at the Munich Art Academy . There were his teachers u. a. Moritz Weinholdt (1861–1905), Johann von Herterich and Heinrich von Zügel .

After completing his studies, the artist moved to Haimhausen , where a small artist colony had developed. He was mainly active as an animal painter (of horses, cows and oxen), but also worked as a landscape painter, where he liked to choose the stump willow typical of the Amperauen as a motif.

Max Hein-Neufeldt had u. a. Exhibitions in 1913, 1916, 1917, 1919, 1921, 1923, 1925, 1926, 1929, 1938 and 1939 in the Munich Glass Palace .

Artistic work

He showed horses at work in the fields, but also grazing cattle. He preferred the spontaneously chosen image section, an impasto application of paint and handwritten brushwork that breaks the object down into broad layers of lines. As a reins student he is a typical representative of late impressionism .
