Otto Eduard Pippel (1878 - 1960) was a German painter. Numerous depictions of motifs from Munich's city life come from Pippel. He is considered one of the most important late impressionists in southern Germany. He was born in Lódz, the son of German immigrant parents. In 1896 he entered the School of Applied Arts Strasbourg. After military service, he completed his studies in 1905 in Karlsruhe with Friedrich Fehr and Julius Hugo Bergmann and completed his training at Gotthardt Kuehl at the Dresden Academy. In 1909 he took his permanent residence in Planegg near Munich. In 1912 he was a member of the "Luitpoldgruppe" and exhibited for the first time in Munich. During the First World War was interpreter. After 1918 he lived in his house in Planegg, where his extensive work was created. As a brilliant technician of color, he painted a variety of landscapes, still lifes and urban vedutas, he also mastered figurative painting in a perfectly impressionistic manner. Pippel's work is characterized by a pasty, flickering application of color. His Munich motifs such as Hofgarten, Englischer Garten and Hirschgarten made him famous. Pippel's works can be seen in the Municipal Gallery in Lenbachhaus ("The Undosabad in Starnberg" and "Großstadtstraße") and in the Städtische Galerie Rosenheim ("Am Chines Turm", "Sommer" and "Kammermusik").
