  HERMANN HERZOG (1832-1932), LANDSCAPE WITH WATERFALL AND ANGLER Title: Hermann Herzog (1832-1932), Landscape with Waterfall and Angler Medium: oil on canvas Dimensions: 28 3/8 x 42 3/8 Frame dimensions: 35 3/4 x 49 3/4 x 2 1/2 Notes: Born 1832 in Bremen, Germany, Hermann Herzog began his studies in 1948 at the famed Düsseldorf Academy. Deeply influenced by his teachers, who urged him to travel in search of scenic beauty and inspiration, he trained while traveling extensively throughout Europe. His travels led him to paint sweeping Romantic landscapes, depicting unique views of fjords, lakes, waterfalls and mountains. Herzog exhibited paintings in Germany and France, winning a prize at the Paris Salon in 1863. Distinguished patrons of his work included Queen Victoria, the Grand Duke Alexander of Russia and other members of royalty. While still living in Germany, Herzog sent paintings to the Pennsylvania Academy’s annual exhibitions from 1863 to 1869, establishing an American market for his work. After immigrating to the United States in 1869, he settled in Philadelphia and traveled widely throughout the eastern United States, painting landscape scenes of Niagara Falls, the Chesapeake Bay, New Hampshire’s White Mountains and the Maine coast. By the mid 1870s he ventured west and discovered the rugged, mountainous landscapes of Utah, Oregon and California’s Yosemite Valley. Throughout his career, he remained steadfast in his romantic view of the world, his canvases painted in a polished, realistic manner, imbued with luminous light. Today his work can be found in several museum collections, including the Smithsonian’s American Art Museum, the Farnsworth Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Cincinnati Art Museum, and the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson, Wyoming. Hermann Herzog continued to paint until his death in 1932 at the age of 99.
