Georg Ludwig Meyn

He began his studies at the Prussian Academy of Arts, from 1876 to 1882, where his primary instructor was the history painter, Otto Knille.

He also held successful showings at the Große Berliner Kunstausstellung, in 1894 and 1897, when he was awarded a small gold medal, and at the Vienna Künstlerhaus in 1899.

The following year, he was able to build a large home for his family, in Neuglobsow [de] on the Stechlinsee.

His descendants still own the home; using it for an art gallery and community meeting place.

The exhibitions continued, at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition (1904), Venice Biennale (1905), where he received good critical notice for a portrait of his fellow painter, Hans Looschen, the Kunstverein in Hamburg [de] (1906), and again at the Vienna Künstlerhaus (1909).
