from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Clara Henriette Marie Stöckhardt (born October 13, 1829 in Budissin , † February 6, 1897 in San Remo ) was a German painter.

Life

At the age of three, Stöckhardt moved with her parents to Saint Petersburg because their father, Heinrich Robert Stöckhardt , had received an appointment as professor of Roman law . The later lecturing council in the Prussian Ministry for Public Works Julius Reinhold Stöckhardt and the architect Heinrich Stöckhardt were their brothers. The family returned to Germany after the early death of their father in 1848 and initially found their way to Naumburg , the home of their mother Emilie nee. Voigt, a new home. Clara Stöckhardt studied in Berlin with the painter Max Schmidt and lived in Weimar , where Schmidt had moved in 1868. Here she corresponded with Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche . Since her time in Naumburg she was on friendly terms with Friedrich Nietzsche's family.

Stöckhardt later moved to Italy, where she lived in Rome and Turin and in 1880 married the later Major Giulio Cantoni. In 1884 she turned to Robert Koch from Cagliari with a request to send her medicine for a cholera disease.

Stöckhardt was a landscape and architecture painter of the 19th century and from 1870 to 1880 was represented at several academic art exhibitions in Berlin, Dresden and Hanover.
