SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
The German painter Karl Hagemeister, born and deceased in Werder, returns there after several years of training and travel. The town becomes the setting for his work, where he gradually turns away from oil painting in favour of oil pastels. His career begins with teacher training in Köpenick, followed by teaching at a primary school in Berlin. From 1871 to 1873, he receives a classical education at the Princely Free Drawing School, directed by Friedrich Preller. From 1873, study trips bring him into contact with the painters Carl Schuch and, later, Wilhelm Trübner. With them, he studies the Old Masters in the Netherlands; he then continues his stay in Italy until 1876.
Landscape occupies an important place in his work. Hagemeister also introduces figures into his landscapes, using, among others, maids and farmers as models. An opaque-watercolour painting, Pflanzen am Ufer eines Weihers, signed and dated “(18)84”, bears witness to his work on a waterside subject; it measures 42 × 62.5 cm. In 1884, he travels to Paris with Schuch and, according to the biographical entry, discovers the Barbizon school. The titles of several works trace his interest in landscapes and natural motifs: Champ de pavots (1875), Paysage avec un moulin à vent (around 1880), Étang dans le marais (1902) and Vagues dans une tempête (1915).
His work is not limited to painting: in 1913, he publishes a book devoted to Schuch, Carl Schuch. Sein Leben und seine Werke, followed by a Kleine Selbstbiographie in Werder in 1928. The entry reports that he exhibits widely. In 1912, at the request of Prince Friedrich Leopold of Prussia, he gives private lessons; in 1913, he receives the Bavarian Order of Merit for Science and Art and is appointed a member of the Academy of Arts in Berlin in 1923.
This profile brings together identity references for Karl Hagemeister and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
