Life

Paul Flickel was born in Berlin in 1852 as the second of five children of Franz Flickel (1812–1878) and his wife Antonie, geb. Gropius (1825-1907). His artistic career began at the age of 16 when he began to train himself in the same art with his maternal grandfather, the theater and decorative painter Professor Carl Gropius . In 1871 he went to Weimar for three years at the Grand Ducal Art School and studied landscape painting with Professor Theodor Hagen . In 1874 and 1875 he continued his studies in Düsseldorf .

From 1876 he lived in Berlin, interrupted by annual study trips through Germany, to Austria and in 1877 to Italy. From 1892 to 1903 he was a member of the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin, and in 1894 he was appointed professor. Paul Flickel died in Nervi, Italy in 1903. His (now leveled) grave, originally decorated with a grave stele by the sculptor Otto Riesch , was in the New Dorotheenstadt Cemetery in Berlin.

The pictures he took after traveling to Italy "[...] are characterized by the powerful effects of sunlight with a wide range of painterly treatment, with F. placing particular emphasis on the depiction of the lush vegetation of the south."

For his studies in Germany he chose the Baltic coast of Ostholstein , Darß and Rügen , the Harz and the Mark Brandenburg . There he specially painted the interior of beech forests in full sunlight. For the beech forest (motif near Prerow a / Baltic Sea) he received the large gold medal at the Berlin art exhibition in 1886.

Quote

“[...] 'Waldlandschaft von Vilm' by Paul Flickel. The German forest is the artistic favorite domain of this Berlin master. Not that he limited himself one-sidedly to its depiction in his landscape paintings. During a long stay in Italy he studied the nature of the beautiful south as thoroughly as that of his homeland, and developed the studies collected on the Riviera, in Naples, on Capri into numerous paintings, which in graceful truth are not inferior to his German forest pictures . But the latter is endowed with the deep, intimate feeling of home that is expressed in them, the painter's settling in with all the secret poetic magic that weaves in the sunlit shadow, under the golden green canopy of German beech and oak groves, yet another very special one seeming attraction for German viewers. The anniversary exhibition sent Flickel two such pictures from northern Germany. The wonderful forests of the Baltic Sea coast areas near Prerow and on the small island of Vilm off the south coast of Rügen in the "Rügener Bodden" gave him the inspiration and the motives for this. These pictures earned him the award of the great gold medal. [...] "
