August 1887 CE
Max Liebermann had returned to Munich in 1878 and finally settled in Berlin in 1884.
During this period he finds his subjects in the orphanages and asylums for the old in Amsterdam and among the peasants and urban laborers of Germany and The Netherlands (e.g., The Flax Spinners, 1887; Berlin, National Gallery).
In these works, Liebermann, now forty, does for German art what Jean-François Millet had done for French painting.
