Julius Blaeser

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Julius Wilhelm Blaeser , also spelled Bläser (* 1814 in Düsseldorf ; † August 22, 1834 there ), was a German history painter from the Düsseldorf School .

Life

Blaeser, younger brother of the sculptor Gustav Blaeser , studied painting at the Düsseldorf Art Academy since 1833 . His teacher there was the history painter Karl Ferdinand Sohn , who rated his work as “very good”. In August 1834 he drowned while bathing in the Rhine near Düsseldorf. Blaeser's brother Gustav remembered him by drawing drafts for a memorial. These designs led to the execution of a portrait statuette, which was probably made in Berlin in 1834 and is now in the collection of the Museum Kunstpalast .
