OBERLANDER, ADAM ADOLF (1845 )

This article appears in Volume V19, Page 946 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NUM-ORC
OBERLANDER, ADAM ADOLF (1845 ) ,
German
  caricaturist, was born at Ratisbon, but after 1847 lived in
Munich
 . He studied
painting
  at the
Munich
 
Academy
  under Piloty, and soon discovered that the true expression of his genius was in the field of caricature and comic drawings. He joined the staff of the Fliegende Bldtter, to which he became a
constant
  contributor. Unlike
Busch
 , whose aim was the utmost simplicity of line and whose drawings form a running commentary to the legend, Oberlander's
work
  is essentially pictorial, and expressive in itself, without the extraneous aid of the written line. Among his best drawings are his parodies on the style of well-known painters, such as the " Variations on the Kissing Theme." His works have been collected in the Oberldnder-
Album
 , published by Braun and Schneider in Munich.
