Reproductions by Franz Xaver Winterhalter

Franz Xaver Winterhalter was an outstanding representative of German artistic community. He lived and created in the 19th century. The German painter was born in a small village and had seven siblings. His father was a farmer. However, his situation did not stop Franz from making his dreams come true, and developing his passion for the arts. He developed his unique workshop in Munich and in Freiburg. His artistic work did not win recognition of the contemporary critics, though. Nevertheless, his talent was soon appreciated by worldwide aristocracy. Franz Xaver Winterhalter specialised in painting unique portraits. At the beginning, his works were considered too obvious and kept in an outdated style. However, his workshop and style underwent various transformations, and his works became much more modern. A characteristic element of his style was the meticulous rendering of the details, e.g. the elements of the outfit. And, interestingly enough, at the end of his life the German artist painted straight away by transferring the image directly onto the canvas, without making a preliminary sketch.
