Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Geist

Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Geist was a German Impressionist painter. In 1888, he entered the Academy of Fine Arts, Karlsruhe. With a scholarship from the Grand Ducal Ministry of the Interior, he undertook further studies in Munich, Vienna and Italy. In 1900, he exhibited at the Glaspalast. Although he was officially enrolled at Karlsruhe until 1905, he actually pursued his studies in Stuttgart. He briefly lived in Darmstadt, then returned to Grünberg in 1905 although, as a free-lance painter, he travelled frequently to visit his clients. After 1915 he lived in Wimpfen. World War I hit him very hard; especially the loss of friends such as August Macke and Franz Marc. In response, he abandoned impressionism for a gloomier Academic style.
