Max Klinger (18 February 1857 in Leipzig – 5 July 1920 in Großjena) was a German symbolist painter, sculptor and graphic artist. Klinger studied in Karlsruhe. He was an admirer of the etchings of Menzel and Goya.
Klinger began his training in 1874 at the Academy in Karlsruhe with Karl Gussow; when he became a teacher at the Academy in Berlin in 1875, Klinger went with him. After stays in Munich and Brussels, he lived in Paris from 1883 to 1886. From 1888 to 1890 he travelled to Italy, where he met Arnold Böcklin, after whose paintings he had already made several etchings. In 1893 he settled again in Leipzig, where his house became a centre of artistic and social life. In 1897 he was given a professorship at the Academy of Graphic Arts.
Numerous journeys took him throughout Europe. In his very versatile oeuvre as a graphic artist, his best-known work is a series of ten etchings entitled Paraphrase über den „Fund eines Handschuhs“ (printed 1881). These prints were based on images in Klinger's dreams after finding a glove on an ice rink. In this case, the glove becomes a symbol for the artist's romantic desires. The plates suggest various psychological states or crises with which the artist depicts a person (who bears a striking resemblance to the young Klinger).
Klinger travelled extensively through the art centres of Europe before returning to Leipzig in 1893. From 1897 onwards he concentrated primarily on sculpture; the 1902 Vienna Secession exhibition was organised around his marble statue of Beethoven.
Klinger was cited by many artists, including Giorgio de Chirico, as an important link between the Symbolist movement of the 19th century and the early Metaphysical and Surrealist movements of the 20th century.
