Adolph Claudius Tidemand

Adolph Claudius Tidemand , also Clas Tidemand (born July 3, 1854 in Christiania , Norway ; † June 12, 1919 in Tjøme , Vestfold , Norway), was a Norwegian landscape , history , genre and portrait painter from the Düsseldorf School . Some of his paintings were at times mistaken for those of his famous uncle Adolph Tidemand .

Life

Tidemand, son of the doctor August Tidemand (1816–1883) and his wife Nicoline Bolette Jæger (1819–1893), was the youngest of four brothers. In 1873 he went to Düsseldorf , where his uncle Adolph Tidemand was an honorary professor. Initially he wanted to study architecture there. From 1874 to 1882, however, Tidemand studied painting at the Düsseldorf Art Academy . His teachers were Andreas and Karl Müller , Heinrich Lauenstein , Eduard Gebhardt , Julius Roeting , Wilhelm Sohn and Carl Ernst Forberg . After graduating, he returned to Norway. Mainly he seems to have lived there from portrait painting. With Caroline Gundersen, whom he met in the 1880s, and her sister, he moved to the vicinity of Tjøme in 1898, where he died in 1919. In the 1880s he traveled back to Düsseldorf several times, and in 1910 undertook a study trip to Capri .
