Kilian inches
Kilian Christoffer Zoll , also Kilian Kristoffer Zoll (born September 29, 1818 in Hyllie , today Malmö , † November 9, 1860 in Stjärnarp , Halland ), was a Swedish painter from the Düsseldorf School .
Life
Zoll studied at the Stockholm Art Academy from 1835 to 1839, and at the Copenhagen Art Academy in 1845/1846 , with Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg among others . There he had contact with the romantic-classicist painting of the " Golden Age ". The “intimacy and unholy everydayness” taught in Copenhagen was of great importance for his artistic development. A series of study trips took him to Skåne , Halland, Småland and Dalarna . When he visited the Botorp house in Jönköping in 1842 , he was commissioned to paint an altarpiece for the church in Linderås. In 1848 he did military service in Schleswig in the Swedish Kronoberg Regiment . In 1852 Zoll went on his first study trip to Düsseldorf , where he lived until 1855 - with interruptions in the summer months when he was in Scandinavia - and was instructed at the art academy by Theodor Hildebrandt , later in private lessons with Adolph Tidemand . He kept in close contact with Bengt Nordenberg , who also painted in Düsseldorf. Zoll was a member of the artists' association Malkasten . Hildebrandt confirmed that as a genre painter he had a "very good disposition". In the winter of 1858/1859 Zoll visited Düsseldorf again after he had married Henrietta Gustava Horn af Rantzien. Zoll was buried in the churchyard of Laholm .
Work (selection)
In his pictures, Zoll depicted mythological and historical motifs, in particular he painted genre and folk life pictures, portraits and altar pictures. His children's pictures and landscape studies have a very personal touch. Zoll preferred a small aspect ratio. In 1853 he painted the figures for his compatriot, the landscape painter Marcus Larson , in the main work Shipwreck off the Swedish coast .
