Otto Modersohn

German, 1865–1943

Otto Modersohn (1865–1943) war ein deutscher Landschaftsmaler und Mitbegründer der Künstlerkolonie in Worpswede. Er studierte an Kunstakademien in Düsseldorf und Karlsruhe und entwickelte nach 1889 einen farbenfroheren Stil, der von seiner Suche nach Naturalismus beeinflusst war. Modersohn heiratete dreimal, darunter die Malerin Paula Becker, und zog nach ihrem Tod nach Fischerhude. 1940 erhielt er die Goethe-Medaille für Kunst und Wissenschaft und starb 1943 in Rotenburg.
