Georg Genschow

Georg Genschow (born October 4, 1828 in Rostock , † July 15, 1902 in Düsseldorf ) was a landscape painter from the Düsseldorf School .

Life

Georg Genschow studied first at the Berlin Art Academy and then at the Düsseldorf Art Academy , where he was a student of Andreas Achenbach . After completing his training, he stayed in Düsseldorf with his own studio. As a result, he made several study trips to the Bavarian and Swiss Alps, as well as to the Carpathian Mountains . Numerous landscapes, especially mountain landscapes, tell of it. These paintings are "of a fine mood and great poetic effect". From 1857 he was a member of the Düsseldorf artists' association Malkasten .

Some of his works can now be found in the Kunsthalle Kiel , the State Museum Schwerin and the Museum Liège.

The older brother, Christian Genschow , was a sculptor in Berlin.
