Gustav Karl Ludwig Richter

Gustav Karl Ludwig Richter was a German painter of the mid-nineteenth century. He is known as a historical painter and portraitist.

Gustav Richter created his first significant work, The Resurrection of Jairus' Daughter, in 1856. This painting was a great success, as it was one of the first attempts to realistically interpret biblical subjects. In the same year, the artist presented to the public the first portrait of his work, which immediately brought him a reputation as a talented portraitist. His best portraits were dedicated to Sultan Abdul-Mejid, the Duchess of Edinburgh, Emperor William I, Empress Augusta and Queen Louise. In his works, in addition to portraits, Richter concentrated on depicting individual figures. Among his famous works in this genre are "Egyptian Woman", "Odalisque" and "Crimean Gypsy Woman".
