Max Schmidt was a German painter of the second half of the 19th century. He is known as a landscape painter.
Max Schmidt early in his career found inspiration in his travels in Southern Europe, Egypt and the Middle East, he created southern romantic landscapes in light colors. After 1855, he switched to northern German natural motifs. The move to Königsberg was a turning point in the artist's work - he studied the Baltic coast and the forests of East Prussia, finding in them subjects for his paintings. Schmidt sought to depict nature, combining realism with idyllic motifs and successful lighting.
