Linda Kogel was a painter and designer working in Munich in the late 1890s and early 1900s. She was a member of the Munich Secession Association, Vereinigte Werkstatten fur Kunst im Handwerk, a group of painters and designers that included Peter Beherns, Bernard Pankok, Otto Eckmann, Richard Riemerschmid, and Bruno Paul. The present painting originally comes from the house of Karl Thieme, a banker in Munich and an important patron of the Vereinigte Werkstatten whose house was furnished and decorated exclusively by this group of painters, architects, and designers.
