Christopher Paudiß
Christoph Paudiß (* 1630 in Lower Saxony , † 1666 in Freising , Bavaria) was a Bavarian painter of the Baroque and early age a pupil of Rembrandt in Amsterdam, which led to the nickname "Bavarian Rembrandt".
Life
After many posts, for example in Stuttgart (1656), Prague, Dresden (1659–1660), Vienna and Salzburg, he became court painter to Prince-Bishop Albrecht Sigmund von Freising for the last four years of his life . He was married twice.
He had to contend with economic difficulties throughout his life. He died shortly after the Prince-Bishop withdrew his funding on the occasion of an artist competition (lost by Paudiß). His house, inhabited between 1664 and 1666, was in Heiliggeistgasse, between the Heiliggeistspital and the former St. Georg boys' school; the house no longer exists. The previous name at this point was "Im Barthof", now " Christopher-Paudiß-Platz ".
plant
He painted still lifes, portraits, animal pictures, history pictures and, above all, large pictures of poor people in the country. His paintings and frescoes often depict gloomy everyday motifs; He rarely painted portraits, however. In doing so, he was guided by the art of Rembrandt. The Freising Diocesan Museum has the largest collection of his paintings (15, five of which are on loan ). In 2007 the exhibition Christopher Paudiß - Der Bavarian Rembrandt? instead of.
