Carl Adloff (painter)
Carl (Karl) Adloff (born January 12, 1819 in Düsseldorf ; † April 16, 1863 there ) was a German painter from the Düsseldorf School .
Life
Adloff was the child of the married couple Franz Joseph Adloff (1786–1832) and Anna Margaretha Adloff, b. Kaimer (1784-1846). From 1833 to 1843 he studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy , where he attended the landscape painters class under Johann Wilhelm Schirmer in 1836 and the architecture class under Rudolf Wiegmann in 1840/1841 . In the student lists of the master class he was listed as an architecture and landscape painter from 1840 to 1843. When choosing the motifs, he preferred the Dutch landscape - based on Dutch painting of the 17th century ; he created beach, harbor, canal and city viewswhose architectures he captured in great detail and in fine painting style. He often painted seascapes that are bathed in a romantic mood of calm by the light of the moon, morning and evening . He was repeatedly represented at academic art exhibitions in Germany and abroad. Adloff was a member of the Malkasten artists' association .
Adloff married Adelheid Schmitz (1820-1893), who gave birth to his daughter Sybilla Carolina († 1927) in 1850. They lived at Pfannenschoppenstrasse 239 (today Klosterstrasse in Düsseldorf-Stadtmitte ) - in the house where Alwine and Adolph Schroedter had lived before they went to Karlsruhe. Sybilla Carolina became the wife of the animal painter Carl Jutz the Elder in 1868 and the mother of the later landscape painter Carl Jutz the Younger in 1873 . Adloff was buried in the Golzheimer Friedhof (southern part).
