Ludwig Julius Christian Dettmann was a German artist of the late 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. He is known as one of the leading representatives of the Secession in Germany.
Dettmann began his career as an illustrator and in 1895 became a professor at the Berlin Academy of Arts. He then switched to landscape painting, worked in oil and watercolor techniques and became one of the first Impressionists in Germany. In 1898 the artist joined the Association of German Free Artists and co-founded the Berlin Secession. In 1900 Dettmann became director of the Königsberg Academy of Arts and promoted the development of the Nida colony of landscape artists on the Curonian Spit.
