He attracted the interest of the House of Hohenzollern even as a young artist, and accompanied Prince Heinrich (whose brother would go on to become Emperor Wilhelm II) on a two-year world voyage. He then taught drawing to Wilhelm and Heinrich, and regularly joined Wilhelm on his annual summer trip to Scandinavia for twenty years from 1888 onwards. , By 1890 he had established himself as an artist and was appointed to Berlin’s Academy of Fine Arts in 1896., His oeuvre primarily encompasses landscapes and seascapes. , The present lot likely dates to the early 1890s, the period in which he achieved his breakthrough as an artist.
