Heinrich von Rustige
Heinrich Franz Gaudenz Rustige , from 1867 by Rustige , (born April 12, 1810 in Werl , † January 15, 1900 in Stuttgart ) was a German painter .
life and work
Rustige was a student of Wilhelm von Schadow at the Art Academy in Düsseldorf , which he attended from 1828. He participated in exhibitions there from 1832.
In 1836 he moved to Frankfurt am Main and made study trips to Vienna and Hungary, later to Dresden, Berlin, France and England.
From 1845 he taught as a professor at the Kgl. Art school in Stuttgart and was at the same time inspector of the picture gallery, which was assigned to the art school together with the plastic and copper engraving collections, which were supervised by its own inspectors, and was housed with it in a shared building from 1843 in Stuttgart's Neckarstrasse. From 1865–1866, Rustige had a house built by Christian Friedrich von Leins in Stuttgart at Neckarstrasse 53, which was demolished in 1951.
In 1887 he gave up his teaching activity, but continued his post as "gallery director" for ten years.
Rustige has painted history and genre pictures , landscapes and portraits and in them has shown a skill in arrangement and execution, diligent study and a lively sense of characteristics.
Among his paintings are the prayer during a thunderstorm (loss in the Second World War) and the flood ( National Gallery Berlin ), Duke Alba in the Palace of Rudolstadt (Gallery in Stuttgart), transfer of the corpse of Emperor Otto III. to Germany and Friedrich II. and his court in Palermo as well as "Two Italians" (Städtisches Museum Werl). The Werler Museum also houses the artist's largest collection on display. In the Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf there are portraits of the Düsseldorf School of Painting from 1835.
Rustige has also become known as a poet . A volume of lyrical poems (1845) was followed by the historical dramas "Filippo Lippi" (1851), "Attila" (1853), "Konrad Widerhold" (1856), "Kaiser Ludwig der Bayer" (1860) and "Eberhard im Bart" ( 1863) as well as the partly humorous "rhymes and dreams in the dark" (Stuttgart 1876).

Heinrich von Rustige was awarded the Knight of Honor Cross of the Order of the Württemberg Crown in 1867 , which was associated with the personal title of nobility.
