He grew up in a family of painters, which is why he also came into contact with artistic themes in his family environment. In 1848 he began his training with Friedrich Heimerdinger in Hamburg, where he was born and grew up. Heimerdinger was known for his still lifes and trompe-l'œil painting. Behind this term is an illusionistic painting, which creates a 3-D effect by stylistic means of perspective. This style was often used for elaborate art and ceiling paintings. Schlesinger later trained in Antwerp, Düsseldorf and Paris. These cities were considered the artistic centers of figurative painting at the time.

In the early 1860s Felix Schlesinger lived and worked in Frankfurt am Main. Later he came to Munich and settled there permanently. He regularly exhibited his paintings in his new home, but he also found an interested public in Dresden, Berlin and Vienna. As a genre painter, the artist devoted himself to a central theme: the life of families in the countryside. He often depicted families and children. Research shows that little is known about the artist's private life, except for the works he left to posterity. But the family motifs in the pictures suggest that the artist himself was a husband and family man. Perhaps his wife and children can be seen in some of his paintings?
Felix Schlesinger achieved a certain popularity in the art world of his time. He became known worldwide with his picture motifs. His popular paintings were also in demand by art collectors in England and America. The depictions appear harmonious and peaceful and show a familiar rural idyll. His works depict the everyday life of children in rural surroundings, sometimes sensitively, sometimes humorously. In some works there are also bourgeois scenes. His artistic skill is expressed in the richness of detail and the pleasant colour intensity of his paintings. With this kind of representation he hit the nerve of his time and inspired a broad international audience.
Many of his works are undated, which is why they do not allow any conclusions to be drawn as to the period of their creation. While his earlier works had a more narrative visual language, his later works were characterized by an increasingly realistic representation. Those who wish to marvel at the original works can visit the public collections of the Kunsthalle Hamburg, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam or the Milwaukee Art Museum in Wisconsin. Some of his works are in the possession of private collections and are therefore not open to the public. The artist died in 1910 at the age of 77. Felix Schlesinger's works are still in demand among collectors today. The originals often fetch five-digit sums at art events.
