Louis Kronberg attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Art Students League in New York City, where he studied under William Merritt Chase. He studied under Benjamin Constant, Jean Paul Laurens at the École des Beaux-Arts and Raphaël Collin at the Académie Julian in Paris from 1894 to 1897.

Kronberg's early oil paintings were in an academic style, somewhat dark, with a subdued tonal effect. Later influenced by the techniques of James McNeill Whistler, the compositions of Edgar Degas, and his own interest in oriental woodcuts and engravings, Kronberg evolved a new personal style - animated, dramatic, and adventurous in design.

He worked increasingly in watercolour and pastel to create portraits and scenes of the ballet. A trip to Spain in 1921-1922 led to a renowned series of Spanish and Gypsy folk dancers, in watercolour, oil and pastel. Popular well into the first third of the 20th century, Kronberg made portraits of many notables of the USA and Europe. He was a member of the Salmagundi Club, and was the winner of the club's Shaw Prize in 1919.
