Walter Friedländer

Walter Ferdinand Friedländer (March 10, 1873 – September 8, 1966) was a German art historian (who should not be confused with Max Jakob Friedländer).

Walter Friedlaender was the son of Sigismund Friedlaender and Anna Joachimsthal. Born in Glogau, he was taught art history by Heinrich Wölfflin and others. Among his first students was Erwin Panofsky.

He taught at the Freiburg University (1914–1933[1]), and the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University (1935-1966).

He died in New York.
