Andreas Achenbach: A collection of 148 paintings (HD)
Description: "Andreas Achenbach (29 September 1815 - 1 April 1910) was a German landscape painter, associated with the Düsseldorf school of painting. Achenbach moved to Düsseldorf with his father in 1823. At the age of twelve, he entered the Düsseldorf Academy where he studied with H. C. Kolbe and others. Achenbach's precocious talents soon brought financial success: he made his first sale to the Rheinland/Westphalia Art Union at the age of fourteen. In 1832 Achenbach embarked with his father on a sketching trip to the North Sea and the Baltic. Their itinerary took them through Holland, where the artist was first introduced to the Dutch landscapes which were to exert a powerful influence on his developing style. Upon his return to Düsseldorf the following year, Achenbach reentered classes but found himself increasingly resistant to the classical/romantic tradition which pervaded the school then under the direction of Berlin-trained Wilhelm von Schadow. With the desire to develop an individualistic and more realistic approach to landscape painting, Achenbach left Düsseldorf in 1835. The artist settled first in Munich, then moved on to Frankfurt with his friend and fellow artist, Alfred Rethel, who had also been a student at Düsseldorf. At this time, Achenbach began to produce the major paintings which established his fame. Many of his large scale landscapes and seascapes were based on sketches made on trips to Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and southern Germany taken between 1835 and 1839. Although profoundly effected by a two-year trip through Italy, begun in 1843, Achenbach, upon resettling in Düsseldorf in 1846, returned to the subject matter for which he is best known: depictions of the Northern land and sea. Achenbach remained in Düsseldorf until the end of his life. Despite not having been an instructor at the Academy, as was his younger brother Oswald, his descriptive, realistic approach to landscape painting, which stressed the importance of the plein-air sketch, exerted a profound influence on German landscape painting."
