Carl Friedrich Stange
Carl Friedrich Stange (born January 13, 1784 in Dresden , † March 30, 1851 in Altona ) was a German architectural draftsman, landscape painter, etcher and lithographer .
Live and act
Stange received his first artistic training from the Dresden landscape painter and etcher Carl Wizani, brother of the copper engraver Johann Friedrich Wizani. This was followed by architectural studies with Heinrich Gentz and his brother-in-law and friend, the master builder Friedrich Gilly in Berlin.
Stange lived in Copenhagen from around 1804 to 1812 and made drawings for C. Hansen. In 1810 he applied unsuccessfully for admission to the Royal Danish Academy of Art .
From 1812 to 1842 he lived in Hamburg and made a living mainly from drawing lessons. In addition, he made a name for himself with landscape paintings, drawings and etchings, especially with motifs from Hamburg's rural surroundings. The Hamburger Kunsthalle , the Museum of Hamburg History and the Altona Museum acquired works from him. In the great Hamburg fire of 1842, many of his pictures were lost - according to experts, many of his best.
In 1842 he moved to Altona, where he died in 1851.
