Karl Gatermann I (1883 - 1959)

Karl Gatermann I

Karl Gatermann the Elder was a German painter and graphic artist. He was the uncle of artist Karl Gatermann, who is typically called "Karl Gatermann the Younger" to distinguish between the two. In 1910 he received the First Prize for Painting of the City of Munich for the oil painting Life. From 1919 to 1942 he lived and worked in Lübeck. In Berlin in 1923 and 1925, he exhibited his watercolors in the galleries of Rudolf Wiltschek and in the Kunsthaus Heumann in Hamburg in 1926. Gatermann's watercolors were also shown in England and in the London Times. Gatermann predominantly focused on north German landscapes and cities, though he also painted still life and figurative scenes, and portraits of people.
