Ludwig Heinrich Matthias Hauttmann
Ludwig Heinrich Matthias Hauttmann , also Heinrich Hauttmann (born April 2, 1796 in Lübeck ; † November 21, 1861 ibid) was a German painter and lithographer who worked in Lübeck.
Life
Heinrich Hauttmann came from the Lübeck branch of the Hauttmann family of artists. He was the son and student of Johann Baptist Hauttmann . During the wars of liberation he joined the Hanseatic Legion as a volunteer hunter . His father recorded the moment of farewell in his portrait of the painter and his family (today the Behnhaus Museum ).
From 1821 to 1824 he studied at the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin under Friedrich Wilhelm von Schadow . He returned in 1824, acquired citizenship in Lübeck in 1828 and worked here as a painter, copyist and drawing teacher. In 1828 he opened the first lithography workshop in Lübeck.
He published several lithographic sequences, also based on drawings by his father, including in 1829 about the Lübeck dance of death . In addition to some landscape paintings, he mainly made copies after Old Masters, such as the Sistine Madonna after Raphael for Consul Georg Friedrich Harms .
His drawings of the east facade and the stained glass of the castle church shortly before it was demolished in 1819 are of particular documentary value .
He was married to Engel Margarethe Friderike, b. Berg († November 1867), a daughter of the Lübeck Buntfutterer Johann Ludwig Berg. The daughter of the couple, Minna Hauttmann , continued the family tradition as a painter.
