Carl Von Marr became a renowned expatriate painter and teacher, living much of his professional life in Germany where he created numerous works including figure, genre, and religious subjects. He also depicted peasants in landscapes in a somber palette. Later Marr investigated decorative and symbolic subjects and adopted a much brighter and wider chromatic range.

He was born in Milwaukee to parents John and Bertha Marr. They raised their son in a modest home on Knapp Street. John Marr was a wood-engraver artist in an engraving firm, and his son, Carl Marr, joined him in the business at age fifteen. He also took lessons from Henry Vianden, prominent Milwaukee artist of that era.

Marr went to Weimar, Germany 1875 to 1876 to study at the Weimar Academy followed by study at the Academy at Berlin, and then from 1877 to 1885, with the exception of two years, was at the Royal Academy in Munich. There he did both painting and teaching and became highly regarded in both fields.
