Arthur Langhammer
Arthur Langhammer (July 6, 1854 – July 4, 1901) was a German Impressionist painter and illustrator best known for rural genre paintings. Biography Arthur Langhammer was born in Lützen, Germany. He studied art first at the Leipzig Art Academy and then at the Munich Art Academy, graduating in 1882. He initially earned his living as an illustrator. In 1888 his friend Adolf Hölzel moved to the village of Dachau, Germany, and Langhammer began spending time there as well. In 1897, Hölzel, Langhammer and Ludwig Dill founded the "New Dachau" art school, which became the keystone of the burgeoning Dachau art colony. In 1898, the new colony achieved national recognition when Hölzel, Dill, and Langhammer mounted a joint exhibition in Berlin under the title "The Dachauer". Langhammer moved to Dachau permanently in 1900. Langhammer specialized in idealized rural genre paintings of people working in the fields or at home. He painted in an Impressionist style with vigorous brushwork an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Dachau Art Colony
The Dachau Artists' Colony was located in Dachau, Germany, and flourished from around 1890 until 1914. History In the early 19th century, the then-bucolic village of Dachau (located just 12 miles from Munich) began attracting landscape painters. By the second half of the century, Barbizon-influenced painters like Carl Spitzweg and Christian Morgenstern, and academic painters like Wilhelm von Diez and Eduard Schleich the Elder had worked in and around Dachau. A new era opened in 1888 when the German painter Adolf Hölzel moved to Dachau. In 1897 he and several other avant-garde artists — notably Ludwig Dill and Arthur Langhammer — set up the "New Dachau" art school in Dachau that attracted artists from all over Europe, especially rural genre painters, landscape painters, and printmakers. Many stayed and formed a colony, drawn both by the picturesque surrounding moors stretching to the distant Alps and by the lower cost of living than in nearby Munich. Among those drawn to th ...

19th-century German Painters
The 19th (nineteenth) century began on 1 January 1801 ( MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 ( MCM). The 19th century was the ninth century of the 2nd millennium. The 19th century was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanding beyond its British homeland for the first time during this century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Islamic gunpowder empires fell into decline and European imperialism brought much of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and almost all of Africa under colonial rule. It was also marked by the collapse of the large S ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Munich Secession
The Munich Secession was an association of visual artists who broke away from the mainstream Munich Artists' Association in 1892, to promote and defend their art in the face of what they considered official paternalism and its conservative policies. They acted as a form of cooperative, using their influence to assure their economic survival and obtain commissions. In 1901, the association split again when some dissatisfied members formed the group Phalanx. Another split occurred in 1913, with the founding of the New Munich Secession. Background By the end of the nineteenth century, more artists lived in Munich than lived in Vienna and Berlin put together. However, the art community there was dominated by the conservative attitudes of the Munich Artists' Association and its supporters in the government. These attitudes found expression in the official "mission statements", written by the so-called "Prince of Painters" (''Malerfürst'') Franz von Lenbach. Matters came to a head ...

Ludwig Dill
Wilhelm Franz Karl Ludwig Dill (2 February 1848, Gernsbach - 24 October 1940, Karlsruhe) was a German ship and landscape painter who was a founding member of the Munich Secession. Life and work He was the only son of the Tax Assessor (later a Magistrate) for the Grand Duchy of Baden. The family moved several times, finally settling in Stuttgart in 1862. Beginning in 1872, he studied architecture at the Polytechnic Institute (now the University of Stuttgart), then moved to the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, in 1874, where he studied under Karl Theodor von Piloty and Otto Seitz. He was, however, more influenced by the landscapes of Adolf Heinrich Lier and decided to pursue that speciality himself. He did a great deal of travelling and the area around Venice (especially Chioggia) became one of his favorites for plein air painting. The impressionistic nature of the land and seascapes eventually led him to a sort of ornamental stylization, approaching Art Nouveau. He later became ...
