KARL HESS (18011874)

This article appears in Volume V13, Page 409 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JUN-KHA
KARL HESS (18011874) , the third son of Karl Christoph Hess, born at Dusseldorf, was also taught by his father, who hoped that he would obtain distinction as an engraver. Karl, however, after engraving one
plate
  after Adrian Ostade, turned to
painting
  under the guidance of Wagenbauer of
Munich
 , and then studied under his elder brother
Peter
 . But historical composition proved to be as contrary to his
taste
  as engraving, and he gave himself exclusively at last to illustrations of
peasant
 
life
  in the hill country of Bavaria. He became clever alike in representing the
people
 , the animals and the landscape of the Alps, and with constant means of reference to nature in the neighbourhood of
Reichenhall
 , where he at last resided, he never produced anything that was not impressed with the true stamp of a kindly
realism
 . Some of his pictures in the museum of
Munich
  will serve as examples of his manner. He died at
Reichenhall
  on the 16th of November 1874.
