Alfons Epple

Alphonse Epple was a German landscape, portrait and ecclesiastical painter. In 1919 he studied at the Stuttgart School of Applied Arts under Bernhard Pancock. Presumably, he learned there the technique of fresco painting, the skill in which brought him commissions in later years. His passion was the depiction of religious subjects. In addition to paintings on religious motifs, he painted portraits of friends and acquaintances, landscapes depicting the idyll of his native nature or reflecting an interest in the rural and folk way of life. Apple uses a free, fast brush to capture the ever-changing lighting situation. His oil paintings are characterized by impasto application of paint, and the influence of the Impressionists is especially noticeable in the depictions of landscapes. Completely abandoning contours, Epple formed his compositions from wide dotted lines located side by side.
