MARTHA WENZEL (German /
1859-1943)
Martha Wenzel was born in Lippiany (Lippehne) and died in Merxhausen. Her powerful woodcuts of the early 1900s show a remarkable talent, but like so many female artists of her day, little is known about her. In 1907, when she created our colour woodcut for the leading art revue Zeitschrift für Bildende Kunst, Martha Wenzel was living and working in Munich, where she had studied under Ernst Neumann and at the Women's Art School under Karl Stauffer-Bern, who also taught Käthe Kollwitz.
