Heinrich Schulz (painter)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heinrich Schulz (also: Peter Heinrich Andreas Schultz and Peter Heinrich Andreas Schultze ; born August 19, 1797 in Hanover ; † May 25, 1886 ibid) was a German painter and drawing teacher and restorer . As a “teacher of free hand drawing” he has trained generations of artists for more than four decades.

Life

Peter Heinrich Andreas Schultze was born during the personal union between Great Britain and Hanover at the time of the Electorate of Hanover and grew up into the so-called “ French era ”.

Half-length portrait of a gentleman from the property of “Miss. C. Hink ", which together with a women's picture in 1938 through the mediation of the art dealer Emil Backhaus in the possession of the Lower Saxony State Museum Hannover arrived and now the focus of provenance research is

Schulz received his first lessons in drawing from the engraver and painter Johann Gerhard Huck , who died soon after. As a result, Schulz became a pupil of Johann Heinrich Ramberg and was later seen as a representative of a "tired classicism ". From 1818 Schulz stayed in Dresden , educated himself in Italy from 1823 to 1826 before settling in the city of Hanover in 1830.

Before the Industrial Revolution began in the Kingdom of Hanover , Schulz was one of the initiators of the Hanover Art Association, which was founded in 1832, alongside the builder Justus Heinrich Jakob Molthan , the sculptor August Hengst , the painter Justus Elias Kasten and others .

Schulz was the first teacher of freehand drawing at the Hanoverian Polytechnic to teach from the founding year of 1831 until the early days of the German Empire in 1876 .

Schulze's numerous students included Edmund Koken , Theodor Kotsch , Wilhelm Busch , August Klemme and many others.

The address book of the royal capital and residence city of Hanover and its suburbs for 1856 announced that the painter and teacher had moved from Haus Kleine Barlinge 21 to the Misburgerdamm 1 building at Easter of that year .

Heinrich Schulze was a member of the Hanover Art Association . He was one of the rather quiet artists of the royal seat of Hanover, who “only rarely showed his own art to the outside world”. In the period from around 1830 to 1882, however, he exhibited his works several times at the Kunstverein Hannover.

Schulze was described as a painter whose pictures show a sense of quiet greatness. This attribute is said to be found in the portrait of Claus von derdecke , which presumably came from the hand of the drawing teacher or one of his students. Schulze's outstanding works include the portrait of a boy in a sailor's costume and an ancient shepherd's scene , which apparently depicts Jacob wooing Rahel.

Provenance research

A portrait of a gentleman painted by Schultz as an oil on canvas in the dimensions 65.7 × 53.5 cm from 1841 came together with a later destroyed female portrait from the possession of “Miss. C. Hink ”and through the mediation of the Hanoverian art dealer Emil Backhaus during the time of National Socialism in the year of the Reichspogromnacht 1938 into the possession of today's Lower Saxony State Museum Hanover . Regarding the previously incomplete provenance , the museum announced on its website “that a Nazi persecution-related withdrawal or forced sale cannot be ruled out for the time being. However, they could also be lawful acquisitions, gifts, or bequests. The objects published here are also registered with the Magdeburg coordination office and are updated depending on ongoing research and incoming information. Should you have further information on the provenance of the works of art mentioned, we would be happy to hear from you. "
