Live and act
Vogel was born in 1854 as the son of a master bricklayer and studied in 1874/1875 at the Dresden Art Academy with Ludwig Richter . In 1877/1878 he stayed in Italy and was a founding member of the German Society of Artists in Rome . Then he lived in Dresden and Loschwitz .
He worked for the publishing house Braun & Schneider , also drew articles for the German Youth by Julius Lohmeyer and regularly for the magazine Fliegende Blätter . His early reference to the Nazarenes later gave way to a general late Romantic view. In addition to Ludwig Richter, Moritz von Schwind influenced Vogel's work. Even Carl Spitzweg served as a model.
Illustrations by him appeared in 1881 in the Chosen Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen , in 1887 in the Folk Tales of the Germans by Johann Karl August Musäus and in 1891 in Die Nibelungen by Gustav Schalk . In addition, the Hermann Vogel album was published in two volumes, initially from 1896 to 1899 . Volume 3 (picture and story book) and volume 4 (old and new by Hermann Vogel) appeared in 1903 and 1908. The Leipziger Illustrierte Die Gartenlaube printed several of his works. Hermann Vogel is also the actual creator of the Vaillant hare. In 1899 he received a small gold medal at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition .
Hermann Vogel last lived on his country estate in Krebes and was buried there.
