Zusammenfassung
|
This study examines the relationship between landscape painting in Düsseldorf and the natural sciences in the nineteenth century. The natural sciences here comprise meteorology, geology, geography and botany. The point of view provided by these fields offers an approach to the subject that has not been considered in Finnish art-historical discourse to date. The main focus is on the artworks of Finnish artists Werner Holmberg and Fanny Churberg, as well as those by Victoria Åberg, Magnus and Ferdinand von Wright, with essential comparison material provided by studying works by German artists Johann Wilhelm Schirmer and Carl Friedrich Lessing, and by Norwegian artists Hans Gude and August Cappelen. The primary material consists of sketches, studies and finished works of art. I reflect on the developments of the natural sciences in Germany, Norway and Finland in the 19th century, and how these affected the works of art, using the history of ideas and discourse analysis. The main temporal scope of this study falls between the years 1853 and 1880. The time period should not be understood too strictly, because it is not possible to talk about the relationship between landscape painting and natural sciences within these decades alone. During the first decades of the 19th century, artists in Dresden were interested in natural sciences, as well as drawing and painting studies from nature. The same trend continued in Düsseldorf, starting in the 1820s, where it was considered essential to observe the landscape in a ‘proper fashion’, and expressions such as ‘the new naturalism’ and ‘the truth of nature’ were widely used. Thanks to the activities of Johann Wilhelm Schirmer and Carl Friedrich Lessing in the field of open-air painting, the notion of naturalism gained the dimension it has been granted in this investigation. It was their example that encouraged younger artists to go out into nature.
