Charlotte Berend-Corinth

Charlotte Berend-Corinth (25 May 1880 – 10 January 1967) was a German Jewish painter and artist in the Berliner Secession.

In 1919 Lovis Corinth bought a house in Urfeld at Walchensee where he and his wife could retire from their life in Berlin.

It was here, in her lakeside home at Urfeld, where she painted landscapes, portraits and still lifes and more and more retired from the active arts scene.

[1] Berend-Corinth emigrated in 1933 to the United States of America, where her son Thomas was already living in New York City.

In 1958, she published a book of the complete paintings of Lovis Corinth, which became a standard work and is in use today in a 1992 edition from Béatrice Hernad.
