Joseph Heydendahl

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Joseph Nicolai Heydendahl (born September 4, 1844 in Düsseldorf ; † February 6, 1906 there ) was a German landscape painter from the Düsseldorf School .

Life

Heydendahl attended the Düsseldorf Art Academy from 1859 to 1865. His teachers were Heinrich Mücke , Andreas and Karl Müller , Carl Ferdinand Sohn , Rudolf Wiegmann and Joseph Wintergerst . He worked in Düsseldorf almost all his life. In 1879 he went to London for some time , but in 1883 he had returned to Düsseldorf. He also made trips to the Netherlands and Norway . A historical address book from 1889 names him - alongside the painter Nikolaus Heydendahl - as a manager of the Kunsthalle Düsseldorf . Heydendahl's son was Ludwig August Heydendahl (1876 – approx. 1960), who also studied at the Düsseldorf Academy and became a painter of landscape and hunting motifs.

Like Johann Jungblut , Heydendahl specialized in winter landscapes, often with hunting motifs, scenes from the Thirty Years' War and in evening light. His landscapes, often depictions of waters, show motifs from Westphalia, the Lower Rhine, the Netherlands and Norway.
