ACHENBACH, ANDREAS (1815 )

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 142 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: A10-ADA
ACHENBACH, ANDREAS (1815 ) , German landscape painter, was born at Cassel in 1815. He began his art education in 1827 in Dusseldorf under W.
Schadow
  and at the
academy
 . In his early
work
  he followed the pseudo-idealism of the German romantic school, but on removing to
Munich
  in 1835, the stronger influence of L. Gurlitt turned his talent into new channels, and he became the founder of the German realistic school. Although his landscapes evince too much of his aim at picture-making and lack personal temperament, he is a master of technique, and is historically important as a reformer. A number of his finest works are to be found at the Berlin National Gallery, the New Pinakothek in
Munich
 , and the galleries at Dresden,
Darmstadt
 ; Cologne, Dusseldorf,
Leipzig
  and Hamburg.
His brother,
OSWALD
 
ACHENBACH
  (1827-1905), was born at Dusseldorf and received his art education from Andreas. His landscapes generally dwell on the
rich
  and glowing effects of colour which drew him to the Bay of Naples and the
neighbour
 -hood of Rome. He is represented at most of the important German galleries of modern art.
