About the Item

Carl Wilhelm Hugo Schnars-Alquist Hamburg 1855 - 1939 Sailing ships off the coast Oil on canvas (doubled) Signed lower right Size: 50.5 x 92 cm Frame: 63 x 105 cm Authenticity guaranteed in writing The son of a merchant family, he initially became a merchant himself, but also trained in drawing at the trade school in his hometown and taught himself to paint. Encouraged by the success of various seascapes, which immediately found buyers, he changed careers in 1884 and became a master student of Hans Gude at the Berlin Art Academy in 1886. In 1888–89, he was a delegate of the German Art Cooperative and a member of the jury at the World Exhibition in Melbourne. In 1891, he founded the "Vereinigung der XI" (Association of the XI) with Max Liebermann, Walter Leistikow and others, was a member of the Imperial Commission in 1892–93, a member of the jury in Chicago, was appointed professor in 1896 and moved back from Berlin to Hamburg in 1898. He was also a member of the Hamburg Artists' Association of 1832. His numerous sea voyages to North, Central and South America, Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand, Ceylon, Northern and Southern Europe taught him to depict the sea at all latitudes, in all seasons and in all moods. His paintings were owned by German Emperor Wilhelm II (Help in Sight, 1890), Reich Chancellor Bernhard von Bülow (Germany, 1900), the Kunsthalle Hamburg (Northwest, 1903), museums in Elbing, Adelaide, St. Louis and many private collections in Germany, America, Australia, etc. He also painted many pictures for the steamships of the Hamburg-America Line.
