Georg Emanuel Opiz

Georg Emanuel Opiz was a German painter of the first half of the 19th century. He is known as a painter, graphic artist, printmaker and author of historical novels, publishing under the pseudonym Bohemius.

Opiz began his career with portraits, but from 1807 moved on to genre subjects. He became famous for his watercolors and gouaches depicting daily life in Paris during the Napoleonic I era. His series of lithographs "Cossacks in Paris", executed from life in 1814, became very famous. In 1819 he published a series of 24 color prints "Scenes of Characters from Life in Paris". In the 1820s, Opiz created a series of watercolors, presumably inspired by trips to Russia and the Ottoman Empire.
