Karl Kollmann

Karl Kollmann was a Russian watercolorist of German descent.

At the age of seventeen he moved to St. Petersburg to study under his uncle, Ignaz Sebastian Klauber (1753-1817), an etching specialist. From an early age, Kollmann preferred watercolor in his works, which focused mainly on Russian folk traditions and culture. His skill was so high that he was elected one of the academicians of the St. Petersburg Imperial Academy of Arts. As a draftsman, Kollmann participated in the design of the Alexander Column on St. Petersburg's Palace Square, built in 1830-1834 to a design by Auguste Ricard de Montferrand, and in the construction of St. Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg.
