From Askart.com: Paul Muller-Kaempff (1861-1941) studied at the Academy in Dusseldorf, before he became a student of Schonleber at the Academy in Karlsruhe, from 1883 to 1886. He then studied at the studio of Hans Fredrik Gude at the Academy in Berlin in 1888. He moved to Hamburg, where he was appointed professor in 1906. Muller-Kaempff was one of the most popular and innovative landscape painters of his time. His works were collected by the German royalty as much as by collectors from South America and all over the world. He is also known as the founder of the artist colony Ahrenshoop that is still active today. He died on December 5, 1941 in Berlin, Germany.

From Wikipedia: Kaempff received his first training from 1883 to 1886 at the Dusseldorf Academy of Fine Arts, then at the Academy of Karlsruhe under de:Gustav Schonleber (1851-1917) and finally at the Berlin Academy in the studio of Hans Gude (1825-1903). In 1905 he married his student, Else Schwager, and was appointed professor a year later. From 1908 he lived in Hamburg, later becoming a member of the Hamburg Artists Association. In 1904 he and his wife were founder members of the Oldenburg Art Society. Muller-Kaempff was a successful landscape artist. He produced watercolors, pastels and drawings as well as furniture designs and a multitude of postcards. He was also an accomplished lithographer and produced bird illustrations for the revised edition of Naumanns - Naturgeschichte der Vogel Mitteleuropas.

During his lifetime his works were acquired by museums in Rostock, Oldenburg, Kiel and Hamburg, and bought by numerous private collectors as far afield as Argentina and China. Prince Eitel Friedrich, the second son of Emperor Wilhelm II, acquired several of Muller-Kaempff's pieces for the imperial court in 1908. Muller-Kaempff stayed in touch with his former fellow-student, Georg Muller vom Siel, and visited him at Dotlingen in June 1908 On a hike in 1889 with his friend, Oskar Frenzel (1855-1915), they discovered the secluded fishing village of Ahrenshoop Muller-Kaempff was so inspired by the isolated hamlet that he moved there, built himself a house in 1892, and started the painting school of St. Lucas in 1894. Fellow artists followed his lead, and soon the artists' colony was home to Anna Gerresheim (1852-1921), Elisabeth von Eicken (1862-1940), Friedrich Wachenhusen (1855-1925), Fritz Grebe (1850-1924), Heinrich Schlotermann (1859-1922), Theobald Schorn (1866-1913) and Hugo Richter-Lefensdorf (1854-1904).
