Müller was reputedly the grandson of a Gypsy, joining Die Brücke in 1910. Between 1924 and his death in 1930 he toured Dalmatia, Hungary and Romania studying the Gypsy culture which became the focus of his art. This realistic study contrasts strongly with the generalised figures of his arcadian landscapes.
