Live and act
Klose was a student of Karl Wilhelm Gropius . From 1824 he studied at the Academy of Arts in Berlin and worked as a landscape and architecture painter. Until 1860 he regularly showed his vedute, mostly in watercolor , at the exhibitions of the Academy . Alongside Eduard Gaertner, Klose was one of the most important interior and architecture painters in Berlin. One of the greatest collectors of his works was Friedrich Wilhelm IV , who owned around 85 watercolors by him. Under him, as already under Friedrich Wilhelm III. , Klose had made precise room pictures of high cultural-historical value of many Prussian castles . He left Berlin and its surroundings only once for a trip to Rome and Paris . The art collector Julius Freund also owned two watercolors by him. One showed the Schlossplatz in Berlin with the old castle, the other the reception room of King Friedrich Wilhelm III. of Prussia.
