Herbert Böttger

Herbert Böttger was a German artist. He is considered one of the most important representatives of magical realism in Germany. He studied painting at the Dusseldorf Academy of Art.

Herbert Böttger was a member of the Rhine Secession, was awarded the Prussian State Prize and received the Albrecht Dürer Prize from the city of Nuremberg.

Böttger's paintings are characterised by the composition of the old masters and a photorealistic painting style, but at the same time seem surreal because of their exaggerated realism.
