Live and act

Leopold von Pezold was one of four children of the German-Baltic painter and lithographer August Wilhelm Georg von Pezold (1794-1859) and his wife Caroline, née Tilling (1799-1886). In the 1840s, von Pezold lived with his family in St. Petersburg . In the 1850s he first studied theology and history in Dorpat , then from 1857 to 1858 painting at the Düsseldorf Art Academy under Carl Friedrich Lessing , whom he later followed to Karlsruhe. In 1858 he went on study trips to the Netherlands, Belgium and Tyrol with Eduard Gebhardt . From 1858 to 1861 he studied under Lessing, Johann Wilhelm Schirmer , Ludwig Des Coudres and Adolph Schroedter at the Grand Ducal Badische Kunstschule Karlsruhe . In 1860/1861 he stayed in Rome . Then he returned to Karlsruhe for a short time. From 1862 to 1865 he worked as deputy editor of the Revalsche Zeitung . He returned to Karlsruhe again for a short time. In 1866 he went back to Reval , where he held the position of editor of the Revalsche Zeitung from 1867 to 1869. In 1869 he moved to Riga as an editor for the Rigaer Zeitung. He resigned from this position in 1879 because of his progressive, national liberal attitude, which stood in opposition to significant conservative circles, and went back to Karlsruhe. There Leopold von Pezold wrote for the Badische Landeszeitung and taught literature and aesthetics at the school for women . The “address book of contemporary visual artists ” lists him in 1898 with the entry “Pezold, Leopold v, M. , Karlsruhe, Beierttheim , Allee 28.” (page 192). At the age of 74 he died in Baden's capital.

Von Pezold married Marie, née Müller (1845–1919), daughter of the Reval merchant and councilor Johann Heinrich Müller (1803–1879). During his time as editor-in-chief of the Rigaer Zeitung, his son Johannes, called Hans (1870–1935), was born on June 18, 1870 , and later became a royal Prussian medical officer.
