ΟΣΒΑΛΝΤ ΑΧΕΝΜΠΑΧ , Ο ΜΕΓΑΛΟΣ ΓΕΡΜΑΝΟΣ ΤΟΠΙΟΓΡΑΦΟΣ

Oswald Achenbach was a German artist known for his panoramic landscape paintings. He along with his brother Andreas Achenbach is considered an important figure in the history of 19th-century landscape painting. Included in what is known as the Düsseldorf school of painting, Achenbach’s practice included making plein air studies for larger works. Rendered in delicate muted colors and textured brushwork, his works regularly feature historical architecture and a dramatic use of light. He was influenced by the painters Johann Wilhelm Schirmer, J. M. W. Turner, and Gustave Courbet.

Born on February 2, 1827 in Düsseldorf, Germany, Achenbach began his artistic studies in the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, at the age of eight. In 1843, he embarked on an extensive sketching tour of the Bavarian and Italian countryside. Achenbach went on to secure a tenureship at his alma mater in 1863. The artist’s works are among the collections of the Musee d'Orsay in Paris, the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin, and the Hermitage in St. Petersburg. Achenbach died on February 1, 1905, in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Oswald Achenbach (1827-1905) was a German painter associated with the Düsseldorf school of painting. Though little known today, during his lifetime he was counted among the most important landscape painters of Europe. Through his teaching activities, he influenced the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. In 1835, at the age of eight, Achenbach was enrolled in the elementary class of the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. This was technically in violation of the Academy's bylaws, which required a minimum age of twelve. He continued there until 1841. He was a student in the elementary class, where he was instructed in the basics of drawing, and then spent a year in the architecture class. This also did not correspond to the normal curriculum as described in the bylaws. The reasons for Achenbach's treatment are not fully known. Possibly, the bylaws were in practice mere guidelines and exceptions were made often, or perhaps only for highly gifted students like Achenbach. During his education, Achenbach was never actually a student of Johann Wilhelm Schirmer. However, has an artist who spent the greater part of his life in Düsseldorf, he nevertheless had many opportunities to study his paintings. In Achenbach's paintings from the 1840s and early 1850s, Achenbach's paintings contain many of Schirmer's principles of composition. In his later paintings, this influence is no longer identifiable. The influence of Schirmer on his early works is likely due to his brother, twelve years older, Andreas Achenbach, who likewise studied at the Düsseldorf Academy. Andreas was a student of Schirmer's and from certain letters it can be concluded that from at least the 1840s Oswald was receiving advice from Andreas about technique and was therefore indirectly influenced by Schirmer's views on painting. At the heights of their careers, Oswald concentrated on depictions of Italian landscapes while Andreas looked to marine scenes. In their treatment of light and staffage the works of the two brothers resemble each other.
