Elisabeth Schellbach (1861-1929)

Elisabeth Schellbach, also Elisabeth Schelbach, (née Amberg) was a German illustrator.

Elisabeth Schellbach first attended the Königliche Kunstschule in Berlin and then the Kunstgewerbeschule there. She received further instruction in the studio of Georg Ludwig Meyn and the painter and architect Paul Schultze-Naumburg in Berlin.

She later settled in Friedelshof near Königs Wusterhausen.

In 1905, she created animal paintings for the children’s school hall and, possibly at the same time, an altarpiece for a collegiate church in Frankfurt an der Oder.

Elisabeth Schellbach also illustrated botanical books, including a plate for Leitfaden der Botanik, which was published by Weidmann-Verlag in Berlin, and Rosenbusch, which was published by Paul-Parey-Verlag in Berlin.

In addition to her work as an illustrator, she was also active as a flower and still life painter, graphic artist and weaver.

In October 1909 Elisabeth Schellbach received a prize for graphic art and in 1911 a prize for an applied art design from the Association of Berlin Women Artists.

Elisabeth Schellbach belonged to the Verein der Berliner Künstlerinnen and took part in their exhibitions in 1898 and 1901. She was a member of the Deutscher Werkbund and the Künstlerinnenverein Leipzig.
