SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Julius von Klever, born in Dorpat, now Tartu, in 1850 and deceased in Leningrad in 1924, was a landscape painter of German origin active in the Russian Empire. After attending the architecture class at the Imperial Academy of Arts, he studied landscape painting under Vorobyov and Klodt. He exhibited from 1869 and became an academician in 1878.
The Art Museum of Estonia holds Landscape, an oil painting on canvas dated 1897, and Forest Landscape of 1902. These two works document the continuity of his practice around the turn of the century. Their place in the Baltic-German art collection also recalls the cultural background of his training. In 2023, Kumu included Forest Landscape in Decoding the Landscape: Jaan Toomik, bringing this inherited landscape tradition into a contemporary interpretative setting.
This profile brings together identity references for Julius Sergius von Klever and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
