In the life of Anselm Feuerbach
The whole life1851–1854
Studies under Thomas Couture in Paris
In Paris Feuerbach is a pupil of Thomas Couture until 1854, working first under his supervision and then on his own. Ingres also has a great influence on him.
1854
Travels to Venice on a stipend from the Grand Duke of Baden
In 1854, funded by Grand Duke Friedrich of Baden, Feuerbach comes to Venice, where he studies the Venetian colourists to improve his own colour: he makes a copy of Titian’s “Assumption of the Virgin” and paints the figure of “Poetry”. He then continues to Florence and on to Rome.
1855
Settles in Rome
From 1855 Feuerbach settles in Rome for a long time and lives there until 1873, making only brief visits back to Germany. The best works of his career are painted in Rome.
