life and work

Karl Dölitzsch studied in the first half of the 19th century as one of the first students at the Higher Trade School in Hanover. In the royal capital of the Kingdom of Hanover , according to the address books of the royal capital and residence city of Hanover, a Dölitzsch is recorded for the first time for the year 1846, when Karl Dölitzsch first settled in Osterstraße 41 as a "portrait painter" . From 1848 he was listed as a painter at Ernst-August-Straße 12 , on the so-called Leineinsel Klein-Venedig , and there from 1849 as a portrait painter and drawing teacher.

In 1850 Dölitzsch created two oil paintings with the portraits of the Royal Hanoverian court builder Carl Daniel Tanner and his wife Wilhelmine Tanner, née Reinhausen.

In 1853 works by “C. Dölitsch ”represented at a joint exhibition of the Hannover Art Association. The Deutsche Kunstblatt , published by Friedrich Eggers in Leipzig, described the works shown there as "on the whole good, albeit somewhat homely portraits."

When the Kunstmuseum Hannover opened in 1856, various artists had created 22 laurel-crowned medallions for the interior of the house, which were attached between the wood-carved consoles of the entablature. The heads painted gray on gray showed “the heads of German art heroes” and were creations of the painters Carl Oesterley senior , Edmund Koken , Georg Laves , Karl Bostelmann , Adolf Nieß , “Oeltzen, Doelitsch and others”.

In 1859 the painter was one of the full members of the Historical Association for Lower Saxony . In the following year, 1860, the name Dölitzsch was no longer listed in Hanover's address book.
