Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: January 2, 1870 (RKDartists; Integrated Authority File; KulturNav; Nationalmuseum; Benezit Dictionary of Artists; The Fine Art Archive; BnF authorities) or January 2, 1876 (Academy of Arts, Berlin).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
