German art
The Berlin Secession was a group started in 1898 by painters including Max Liebermann, who got much inspiration from the art of Manet and the French Impressionists, and Lovis Corinth then still painting in a naturalistic style.  The group existed until the 1930s. Its regular exhibitions [was important for, or] helped launch the next two generations of Berlin artists.  Near the end of the century, the Benedictine Beuron Art School was known for religious murals, in rather muted colours, with inspiration from Les Nabis. In some ways that art looked forward to Art Nouveau or the Jugendstil ("Youth Style") as it is known in German. Franz Stuck and Max Klinger are the leading German Symbolist painters.
