Arthur Kampf (28 September 1864 – 8 February 1950) was a German painter. He was associated with the Düsseldorf school of painting. Kampf studied under Peter Janssen, among others, at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf from 1879 to 1881. In 1886, Kampf exhibited The Last Statement. The painting's enormous size (112.2 x 142.5 in.) and controversial subject matter brought Kampf instant fame, and laid the foundation for the types of works he would be characterized by for the rest of his career. In 1888, a second painting, Exhibition of remains of Emperor William I in Berlin, solidified Kampf's artistic renown as a painter specializing in historical documentation. After completing his education, he became a professor at the Kunstakademie and taught there until 1889, when he moved to Berlin. There he continued to teach at the local Kunstakademie. In 1911, Kampf was assigned the role of creating the German pavilion at the International Art Exposition of Rome. In 1914, Kampf and art historian Ludwig Justi created the "Künstler Club", a social group of prominent German artists: Max Liebermann, Max Slevogt, Hugo Lederer, Louis Tuaillonn, Gaul, Fritz Klimsch, architect Ludwig Hoffmann, musicians, Richard Strauss and Engelbert Humperdinck, and film director Max Reinhardt.
