Wilhelm Volz

German, (1855–1901)
In his history paintings, Wilhelm Volz worked with religious, mythological and allegorical subject matter but he is also known for his genre paintings and landscapes. So versatile and prolific was he that he also received commissions for murals in churches and public and private buildings as well as etchings and lithographs. Wilhelm Volz's work reveals the influence of the English Pre-Raphaelites, notably Edward Burne-Jones, as well as German Impressionism. Settling in Munich in 1888, Wilhelm Volz became a founding member of the "Munich Secession" in 1892.
