Life

Otto Odebrecht was the only son of the Greifswald old man Hermann Theodor Odebrecht (born May 4, 1802) and a grandson of the Greifswald mayor Johann Hermann Odebrecht . He was first a student of the academic drawing teacher Eduard Weiland (1815–1885) and then went to Düsseldorf, where he trained as a landscape painter in August Weber's studio . Since he died early as a result of an insect bite, his oeuvre remained limited. After his death, his father endeavored to combine his son's pictures in one collection.
