Life

Müller was the son of Ludvig Christian Müller (1806-1851) and his wife Hanne Henriette (nee Hjorth, 1814-1898). He first attended the Latin school (Katedralskole) in Roskilde until 1863 and then began to study medicine. During this time he was invited to a trip to Italy by the landscape painter Thorald Læssøe. He stayed there for about 8 months and dropped out of medical school on his return. In 1872 he took part in the "Master Conference for Aesthetics" and worked as a teacher for Danish at a school in Copenhagen. From 1886 to 1901 he was principal at the Latin school in Kolding. He lived on Strandboulevarden No. 27 in Copenhagen.

Müller's first publication was a collection of poems that appeared in 1867, followed by translations and art historical articles in magazines such as the Morgenbladet , the Dagbladet or the Illustreret Tidende . He also wrote biographical contributions for the Dansk biografisk leksikon , including about the painter Carl Ludvig Thilson Locher or Salmonsen's Konversationsleksikon and other works.
