Life

Tomb of Tetjus Hill

Tetjus Tügel was born on November 18, 1892 as the son of August Christian Wilhelm Ludwig Tügel and his wife Emilie Anna. Gipp was born in the Hamburg district of Hamm at Borgfelder Str. 63. In 1908 he studied for a few semesters at the Kunstgewerbeschule in Hamburg . From 1909 he lived as a freelance artist in Worpswede until he returned to Hamburg in 1914. From 1916 to 1918 he was a soldier in the First World War . After the war he moved back to Worpswede, but was a founding member of the Hamburg Secession founded in 1919 .

In the 1920s, Tügel regularly took part in the preparations and performances of the legendary Hamburg artist festivals . When the Hamburg Secession organized its own artist festivals under the title Zinnober towards the end of the 1920s , Tügel was also involved in the planning.

His large-format oil painting “The Commission of the Hamburger Künstlerfest” from 1922 in the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg shows, among others, the painter colleagues Willi Davidson , Emil Maetzel , Otto Fischer-Trachau , the sculptors Friedrich Adler , Paul Hamann and Richard Luksch as well as himself.

The painting is realized in a variation of brown tones based on the old masters and is typical of Tügel's style.
