Pius Ferdinand Messerschmitt (30 May 1858, Bamberg - 29 October 1915, Munich) was a German painter, illustrator and watercolorist; noted for genre and historical scenes, most of which include horses. BiographyHe came from a family of shippers and merchants. His first painting lessons were at the "Schmidtschen Porzellanmalinstitut" (porcelain painting school) in Bamberg. He completed his education there at the Royal Arts and Crafts School and went to work for his family, trading in grain and produce, although he continued to paint in his spare time. His apprenticeship involved several stays abroad; in Neuchâtel (1874), Antwerp (1875/76) and Straßburg (1876). In 1878, he attended the Exposition Universelle in Paris. That same year, his first illustrations appeared in the magazine {{ill|Über Land und Meer|de}} (Over Land and Sea) and he won a Gold Medal from the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, for his depiction of a scene from Wallenstein's Camp. As a result, he decided to pursue art professionally and enrolled at the Academy, where he studied with Gabriel von Hackl and Gyula Benczúr. In 1882, he began private studies with Wilhelm Lindenschmit. In 1894, he married Else Amalie Fellerer, whose father was a Hofrat at the Bavarian court, and opened his own studio. He also became a member of several artistic associations, including the {{ill|Münchner Künstlergenossenschaft|de}} (Artists' Co-operative). In 1896, he joined its offshoot, the Liutpold-Gruppe, devoted to advancing modern trends. He became a Professor at the Munich Academy in 1912 and, in 1914, he was named Secretary of the "Allgemeinen Deutschen Künstler Gruppe". He died unexpectedly in 1915. His widow married the painter Carl von Marr. He was distantly related to the aircraft designer, Willy Messerschmitt. Sources
