Max Beckmann Prints
Max Beckmann (1884-1950), although not a household name, was one of the most respected and prolific German artists ever. Painter, print maker, draftsman and sculptor, he created more than 800 paintings between 1905-1950, and hundreds more drawings and prints. During the German Weimar Republic, he was held in great esteem and received many honors in his homeland. When the Nazis came to power, however, his artwork was confiscated from museums, classified as degenerate by the government, and mocked and ridiculed as being the product of a "cultural Bolshevik," prompting Beckmann to flee to Holland and then later to the U.S.
Max Beckmann art lives on and here you'll find original and signed Max Beckmann woodcut art, Max Beckmann prints and Max Beckmann etchings. We're also featuring a rare 1950 Max Beckmann lithograph print from his "Improvisations."
