Max Slevogt, the famous German Impressionist, was acclaimed by his contemporaries as the ‘King of Illustration’. This exhibition catalogue is the first to focus closely on his unique collaboration with Berlin’s most influential publisher during the Weimar Republic, Bruno Cassirer, which laid the foundations for the artist’s future reputation. The majority of Slevogt’s extensive and innovative illustrated works were published by Cassirer. The publisher repeatedly encouraged the artist to embark on projects and gave him the freedom to explore new subjects and modern creative approaches. Based on the extensive surviving correspondence between Slevogt and Cassirer, this book also presents several fresh insights into their success and networks, the historical context of their work, and the personal relationship between these two outstanding individuals.Look insideFirst publication on Max Slevogt’s unique collaboration with Bruno CassirerExploration of many previously unpublished sourcesSlevogt as an illustratorExhibitions: Landesmuseum Mainz, 27.11.2025 to 8.3.2026; Moderne Galerie, Saarlandmuseum Saarbrücken, 27.3.2026 to 5.7.2026; Liebermann-Villa am Wannsee, Berlin, 3.10.2026 to 18.1.2027Podcast (German): A conversation with Curator Karoline Feulner on Kunst Museum Konversation

Artist Max Slevogt and Berlin publisher Bruno Cassirer exchanged letters regularly over many years. The surviving correspondence, comprising around 350 documents, not only reflects their long-standing business friendship and the changes in Slevogt’s artistic approach. The letters and postcards also offer many insights into the art trade of the time, the two correspondents’ network, and the political events of the late German Empire and the Weimar Republic. The letters and postcards surviving in the artist’s written estate are now being published for the first time, including 53 letters from Slevogt with his characteristic humorous marginal drawings, in a scientifically catalogued and annotated edition – a milestone for the study of classical modernism in Germany.Look insideFirst publication of the correspondence between Max Slevogt and Bruno Cassirer, comprising approx. 350 written documentsIncluding a comprehensive index of personsCurrent findings of joint cooperative research onMax Slevogt: Landesmuseum Mainz, GDKE; Saarlandmuseum Saarbrücken, Moderne Galerie, and Landesbibliothek Speyer, Landesbibliothekszentrum Rheinland-PfalzExhibitions: Landesmuseum Mainz, 27.11.2025 to 8.3.2026; Moderne Galerie, Saarlandmuseum Saarbrücken, 27.3.2026 to 5.7.2026; Liebermann-Villa am Wannsee, Berlin, 3.10.2026 to 18.1.2027Podcast: A conversation with Curator Karoline Feulner on Kunst Museum Konversation
