Karl Blechen
1797 – 1840
German Romantic painter influenced by Friedrich, whom he probably met in Berlin in 1823. He arrived in Berlin at the age of 16 where he, at the request of his father, completed his commercial studies and then worked for several years in banking. His creative talent became increasingly apparent, prompting him to give up his learned trade and to begin his studies in 1822 at the Art Academy in Berlin.
