Karl Heffner (1849 - 1925) - A river landscape view at dusk (£1,950)
- 64 x 44 cm
Oil on Canvas, Signed. Karl Heffner was a well-regarded German landscape painter in oils and watercolours. Karl Heffner was born in Würzburg in Bavaria in 1849. His early training was as a musician, but he had a strong interest in painting, and he travelled to Munich to study with Adolf Stademann and Adolf Heinrich Lier. Stademann taught him how to capture the subtle quality of winter light. Lier, also a landscapist, subscribed to the realism of the Barbizon School, and we see his influence in the directness and immediacy that characterise many of the scenes painted by Heffner. His works are held in numerous public collections including at the V&A in London.
