Description
Max Arnold (real name Arnold Mendel Wechsler) was born in Iași, Romania on March 23, 1897. He attended the school of fine arts in Iași, and later completed a year of studies at the Higher Institute of Fine Arts in Rome. He was mostly self-taught, as he preferred to study nature in his numerous travels. Arnold was influenced by Cezanne’s art during a stay in Paris in 1928-1929, and he also appreciated the works of other artists such as Van Gogh, Matisse and Picasso. Arnold was a prolific artist, with his first show at the Official Salon in 1916. He participated in several successful exhibitions, including at the Salon des Tuileries in Paris.
