Philipp Otto Runge
German Romantic Painter, 1777-1810
..German painter, draughtsman and theorist. He stands alongside Caspar David Friedrich as a leading figure in German Romantic painting even though his early death restricted his oeuvre to relatively few stages of development. The enduring prominence of philosophical and theoretical concerns suggests that further work would have contributed to the history of ideas as well as to that of art. Runge's greatest influence was on later, largely 20th-century artists and thinkers rather than on his immediate contemporaries. While 19th-century developments certainly bore out Runge's claim for a new, symbolic role for landscape, Related Paintings of Philipp Otto Runge :. | The Small Morning | Ruhe auf der Flucht | Rest on the Flight into Egypt (mk09) | Nosturtium Leaves and Blossoms | Morning (first version) (mk09) | Related Artists: Samuel Lovett WaldoAmerican Painter, 1783-1861
American painter. After attending a country school and working on his father farm, he decided at the age of 16 to become an artist. He took lessons from Joseph Steward (1753-1822), a retired minister who operated a portrait studio in Hartford, CT. Waldo opened his own studio in Hartford in 1803, before moving on to paint portraits in Litchfield, CT, and Charleston, SC. In 1806, bearing letters of introduction to Benjamin West and John Singleton Copley, Waldo travelled to London, where he studied at the Royal Academy. His portrait of Mr M Dougle (untraced) was shown at the Royal Academy in 1808. Parrish, Clara WeaverAmerican, 1861-1925 CRESPI, Giovanni BattistaItalian Baroque Era/Mannerist Painter, ca.1575-1633
