Derweil im Leben von Adolph Menzel
Das ganze Leben1833
His father dies; Adolph becomes the breadwinner
On his father's death the young Menzel became the family's breadwinner and took any work going, drawing dinner menus and invitation cards; by other accounts his father died in 1832, when the son took over the lithographic business.
1833
The album “An Artist's Life” brings first renown
Menzel first became known for a notebook of pen drawings, “An Artist's Life” (by other accounts an album illustrating a poem by Goethe, published by Louis Friedrich Sachse). He attended the Berlin Academy of Art for only six months and was otherwise almost entirely self-taught.
1834–1839
Lithographs of Brandenburg history
Menzel lithographed with his own hand a series of twelve sheets, “Memorable Events of Brandenburg History”.
