Germany, Italy
Johann Liss was a German painter of the first third of the 17th century. He is known as a painter, draughtsman and printmaker, who worked in Italy for much of his life, and as the son and namesake of Johann Liss, a painter at the court of the Dukes of Holstein.
Johann Liss worked primarily in the mythological genre. He is considered one of the key artists of the German Baroque and a prominent representative of the Venetian school. Early in his career, the artist traveled to the Netherlands, where he was influenced by a number of Dutch and Flemish masters. Italy inspired him to synthesize Dutch genre painting, Venetian style and Roman realism.
His paintings are in numerous European collections as well as in Russia and the United States.
