Maria Uhden

Maria Uhden was an artist whose documented active period spanned from 1892 through 1918. Her known contributions to art consist primarily of prints, a medium through which she explored figural and narrative subjects characteristic of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Five of Maria Uhden’s prints are currently represented in major museum collections, attesting to the quality and significance of her output. Her documented works include Ruhende Zigeuner, the evocative study Dance (Tanz), and the detailed scene Sleeping Swineherd with Pigs (Schlafender Hirt mit Schweinen). Other titles, such as Burning House and Woman at the Water, demonstrate her range across diverse thematic studies.

The historical relevance of Maria Uhden prints is underscored by their inclusion in prominent public holdings, including the collection of the Museum of Modern Art and the National Gallery of Art. Today, many of these works are available as downloadable artwork, often preserved to museum-quality standards, ensuring continued access for scholarly research and appreciation. The availability of these high-quality prints ensures her limited, documented body of work remains accessible to the public.
