Ernst Philipp Fleischer (born May 21, 1850 in Breslau ; † November 14, 1927 in Wiesbaden ) was a German painter and a brother of the painter Fritz Fleischer (1861–1938).

Fleischer studied at the Dresden Art Academy with Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld , at the Royal Academy of Arts in Munich with Karl von Piloty and at the Royal Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin with Karl Gussow .

In addition to working as a painter, he ran a paint factory; his father and older brother were chemists.

He went on several study trips to Italy , England and Paris . In his studio in Munich he mainly painted panoramas, but also genre scenes, portraits and illustrations. In 1892 he received the title of professor.

Around 1900 he acquired the property at Ismaninger Strasse 109 in Munich and began building a large residential and social building with a picture gallery, the so-called “butcher's villa”. In 1910 the construction work was stopped due to lack of money. The building now serves as an administrative building for the Federal Fiscal Court .

Philipp Fleischer lived in Munich until 1911, then came to Wiesbaden.
