Jeanna Bauck
Jeanna Maria Charlotta Bauck (born August 19, 1840 in Stockholm ; † May 27, 1926 in Munich ) was a Swedish- German landscape and portrait painter .
Life
Jeanna Bauck, daughter of the German-born composer and music critic Carl Wilhelm Bauck (December 13, 1808, Gothenburg - December 8, 1877, Stockholm) and the Swedish mother, Dorothea Fredrique, née Hansson (April 30, 1806 - December 17, 1834); both married since December 17, 1834. She also had a sister, Hanna Lucia Bauck (* around 1845-1926) and two older brothers, Emanuel Bauck and Johannes Bauck.
She left Stockholm, the city of her birth, in 1863 to go on training trips alone, which was quite unusual for the time. First, Bauck went to Dresden , where she was accepted into Adolf Ehrhardt 's nude class , although access to women was otherwise denied.
Bauck then studied in Düsseldorf , became a private student of Albert Flamm , a representative of the Düsseldorf School of Painting , and was trained in landscape , marine and portrait painting . In Munich she completed her studies with Józef Brandt and Dietrich Langko .
Here she met the Danish painter Bertha Wegmann , with whom she was a lifelong friend (Bertha Wegmann painted over 20 portraits of Jeanna Bauck) and ran a studio with her. Gerhard Munthe described Bauck and Wegmann in 1880 as “dette sjelden dygtige ladies company [this exceptionally capable ladies company]”. They taught German and Norwegian artists, including Minna Stocks (1846–1928) and Agnes Steineger (1863–1965). Bauck and Wegmann went on numerous study trips, including to Tyrol and Venice , and finally both moved to Paris in 1880 . Both artists succeeded in presenting themselves with several works at the Salon de Paris in 1881 and 1882 , where they were commended. In 1882 Wegmann received one of the coveted medals.
Back in Munich , Bauck began her first teaching activities, then taught in Berlin at the “Drawing and Painting School” of the Association of Berlin Artists and finally back in Munich at the well-attended painting and drawing school for women . Paula Modersohn-Becker , one of her best-known students in Berlin since 1896, was very taken with her and described Jeanne Bauck as an unconventional man with little attention to the outside world. The painter Jeanne Bauck belonged to a generation of emancipated women in art who tried to assert their artistic and private independence in the male-dominated cultural institutions and was one of the few female artists in the male ranks of the painting school.
In 1893 Bauck showed her work at the World's Columbian Exposition held in Chicago , and her pictures Woodland Lake and Portrait of a Man were featured in the 1905 book Women Painters of the World .
Jeanna Bauck died in Munich at the age of 85.
Although she won awards for her portraits, she is best known for her landscape paintings, which were created on extensive travels in Europe.
