Paul Borgmann
Paul Borgmann (born July 29, 1851 in Berlin , † October 14, 1893 in Karlsruhe ) was a German genre painter, son of the landscape painter of the same name, who gave him his first painting lessons.
After attending the Friedrichsgymnasium in Berlin, Borgmann studied from 1868 at the Royal Prussian Academy of the Arts in Berlin under Karl Eduard Biermann and Carl Steffeck .
In 1873 he moved to Karl Gussow's studio in Weimar , and later followed him to Karlsruhe, where Gussow taught at the Grand Ducal Baden Art School .
Borgmann has lived in Karlsruhe since then. Thanks to the Rohrschen scholarship received from the Berlin Academy in 1878, he spent a year in Italy and France .
After his return to Karlsruhe, Borgmann worked in Ernst Hildebrand 's studio , who had set up a painting school for women. When Hildebrand went to Berlin as Gussow's successor in 1880, Borgmann took over the management of the school, from which the grand-ducal school for female painters in Karlsruhe emerged in 1885 , which he directed from 1888 until his death. His sister Resi Borgmann also taught in the painting school.
Paul Borgmann died at the age of 42.
