The Düsseldorf School of painting is a term referring to a group of painters who taught or studied at the Düsseldorf Academy (now the Staatliche Kunstakademie Düsseldorf or Düsseldorf State Art Academy) roughly between 1819 and 1918,[1] first directed by the painter Wilhelm von Schadow.[2]

About

The work of the Düsseldorf School is characterized by finely detailed yet fanciful landscapes, often with religious or allegorical stories set in the landscapes. Major members of the Düsseldorf School advocated "plein air painting", and tended to use a palette with relatively subdued and even colors. The Düsseldorf School derived from and was a part of the German Romantic movement. Prominent members of the Düsselorf School included von Schadow, Karl Friedrich Lessing, Johann Wilhelm Schirmer, Andreas Achenbach, Hans Fredrik Gude, Adolph Tidemand, Oswald Achenbach, and Adolf Schrödter.[3]

The Düsseldorf School had a significant influence on the Hudson River School in the United States, and many prominent Americans trained at the Düsseldorf Academy and show the influence of the Düsseldorf School, including George Caleb Bingham, David Edward Cronin, Eastman Johnson, Worthington Whittredge, Richard Caton Woodville, William Stanley Haseltine, James McDougal Hart, Helen Searle, and William Morris Hunt, as well as German émigré Emanuel Leutze. Albert Bierstadt applied but was not accepted. His American friend Worthington Whittredge became his teacher while attending Düsseldorf.

  1. Als die zu betrachtende Zeitspanne der Düsseldorfer Malerschule hat sich unter Einbeziehung des Langen 19. Jahrhunderts der Zeitraum von 1819, das Jahr der preußischen Neugründung der Kunstakademie Düsseldorf und des Beginns des Direktorats von Peter Cornelius, bis 1918, das Jahr des Endes des Ersten Weltkriegs und des Deutschen Kaiserreichs, allgemein durchgesetzt. Der vom Kunsthistoriker Wolfgang Hütt vertretene Ansatz, das Jahr 1869 als das Datum einer gescheiterten Künstler-Revolte gegen das Direktorat einer „junkerlich-preußischen Beamtenbürokratie“ unter Hermann Altgelt als Ende der Düsseldorfer Malerschule zu betrachten, setzte sich nicht durch. – Vgl.
