Friedrich Bindewald

Friedrich "Fritz" Bindewald (31 January 1862 – 1 February 1940) was a German painter associated with the Düsseldorfer Malerschule, and a member of the Reichstag.

From that time until 1888, he was enrolled at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, where he studied history painting, anatomical drawing, and perspective.

His instructors included Johann Peter Theodor Janssen, Eduard von Gebhardt, Hugo Crola, and Julius Roeting.

After 1889, he was a self-employed genre and landscape painter; with a preference for motifs from the Vogelsberg, the Rhön, and the Bavarian Alps.

From 1893 to 1903, and again from 1907 to 1912, he was a member of the Imperial Reichstag, representing the Grand Duchy of Hesse, for the German Reform Party.
