Anton Gutknecht

Anton Gutknecht was a German-American landscape painter known for his maritime seascapes of southern California and rural Europe. With a particular interest in the tumultuous nature of the ocean, the artist often focused on capturing waves crashing on the shore or on the boughs of a ship rendered in a high level of realistic detail. Gutknecht spent his early life traveling between different areas of the country, notably Munich and Hamburg, observing the mountainous terrain that would later be the focus of his work and bring him recognition. Gutknecht taught at the Royal Academy in Vienna before frequently traveling to southern California in the 1930s, eventually moving there to settle in Palm Springs and focus on capturing the landscape there.
