| 1847 | born in Berlin |
| 1869 | studies at the Weimar Academy of Art |
| 1873 | Moved to Paris and Barbizon; artistic influences by Jean-François Millet (1814-1875) and Old Dutch art, especially Frans Hals (between 1580 u. 85-1666) |
| 1874-1914 | Annual summer trips to Holland |
| 1878 | Moves to Munich; contact with the circle of artists around Wilhelm Leibl (1844-1900). Liebermann's intense preoccupation with the motifs of simple craftsmen and peasants, which he had come to know in Holland, earns him a reputation as a "poor man's painter". |
| 1884 | Return to Berlin |
| 1889 | Participates in the Paris World's Fair, dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution; the Prussian government forbids Liebermann to accept the title of Knight of the French Legion of Honor for political reasons |
| 1897 | Professor of the Royal Academy of Arts in Berlin |
| 1898 | President of the newly founded Berlin Secession (with Lovis Corinth and Max Slevogt he forms the triumvirate of the so-called German Impressionism). At this time Liebermann's motifs and painting style changed: his palette brightened, his colors became more luminous. The artist turns to motifs of the bourgeois beach and leisure. |
| 1920-1932 | President of the Prussian Academy of Arts |
| 1927 | Honorary citizen of the city of Berlin |
| 1933 | Resigned as honorary president of the Academy of Arts because the section for fine arts had decided to no longer exhibit pictures by Jewish artists |
| 1935 | died in Berlin |
