Artist of the Week - Max Weyl
 | | Path Through a Winter Landscape |
A favorite Washington, D.C. artist of the late 19th century, Max Weyl
was born of Jewish parents, December 1, 1837, in Muhlen-am-Neckar, Germany.
At a young age he was apprenticed to a watchmaker. In 1853 the family immigrated
to Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where Weyl worked in watch and clock repair.
By 1861 he had found his way to Washington, D.C. and established himself
as a jeweler. He began to dabble in painting and often displayed his work
- still-life's of fruit and flowers - in his shop windows.
