North-German Painters — Art and аntiques
Heinrich Steinhagen, full name Heinrich August Friedrich Johannes Steinhagen, was a German painter, graphic artist and sculptor.
Heinrich began as a self-taught painter with paintings and miniatures in Impressionist and Expressionist styles. He also worked with elements of Cubism and Dadaism and eventually arrived at simplistic monumentality. Steinhagen was a co-founder of the Hamburg Secession and a member of the Hamburg Artists' Association. In 1937, Steinhagen, like many other artists, was persecuted during the Nazi campaign and spent several months in a concentration camp in 1944. This undermined his health and in 1948 he died of lung cancer.
Heinrich Steinhagen's creative legacy amounted to about a thousand works: oil paintings, pen and ink drawings, etchings, watercolors, woodcuts and sculptures in glazed clay, stone and wood.
Wilhelm Heinrich Ernst Eitner was a German painter of the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries. He is known as an impressionist painter and teacher.
Eitner produced portraits, landscapes, and woodcuts in a style reminiscent of Japanese art. Despite initial rejection in German society of his impressionist style of painting, over the years he gained recognition and even the title "Claude Monet of the North." Eitner was a member of numerous art associations. His works are preserved in the Hamburg Kunsthalle.
