Wilhelm Frey

Wilhelm Friedrich Frey was a German painter of the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries. He is known as a painter of the Munich School.

Frey became famous as an animalist and landscape painter who also showed himself in portraits and genre drawings. His style evolved from Munich School techniques to academic realism with subtle color. In the late nineteenth century he turned to the coastal landscapes of northern Germany in his work, exploring color and air movement through the dramatic play of wind and clouds. In his later years, Frey became fascinated with landscapes of Lake Constance, the Rhine, and the Alps.
