William Straube

William Straube, full name William Carl Johannes Bertram Straube, was a German expressionist painter and painting teacher.

Straube acquired his expressive style as a student at Henri Matisse's academy in Paris in 1908-1911, then his studies at the Stuttgart Academy enriched and intensified this style. Straube belonged to the artistic circle of the Rhenish Expressionists, formed around 1910 around August Macke. This time was characterized by the struggle between the French avant-garde and the emerging modernism in Germany.

During the Nazi campaign against degenerate art in 1937, several of Straube's paintings were confiscated and destroyed.

Straube was a member of the Association of German Artists and was a lifelong teacher of drawing.
