Franz Von Stuck lived
from 1863 to 1928. Von Stuck lived most of his life in Munich, Germany
and attended the school of Plastic Arts and the Munich Academy there. He
first made his living by illustrating for numerous magazines. Eventually
around 1892 he became one of the founders of the Munich Sezession and his
symbolist period is also of this decade. Around 1895 he began teaching
at the Munich academy that he once attended. Some of his pupils at
the academy included Klee, Albers, and Kandinsky. Among Von Stuck's
archetectual creations is the Villa Stuck Prinzregentenstrasse, Munich which is now a museum. Von Stuck died in 1928 and was buried in Waldfriedhof in Munich with his wife Mary.
