Hans Heinrich Georg Brandes was a German painter and teacher of the mid-nineteenth century. He began his career with historical painting, then devoted himself entirely to landscapes. His works, especially his depictions of the Bavarian mountains, earned him the prestige of being a skilled landscape painter. He also created still lifes and portraits.
Brandes taught painting and drawing in Braunschweig and was curator of art in the museum of Duke Anton Ulrich. He participated in the restoration of the frescoes in Brunswick Cathedral. In his works Brandes combined the principles of classical painting with the monuments of Romanticism, and demonstrated a stylistic connection with the "Nazarenes" or "Munich landscape painters".
