"The Hülsenbeck Children"
Philipp Otto Runge - Oil On Canvas - 131 x 143 cm
The Artist: Philipp Otto Runge
Philipp Otto Runge was a German artist, draftsman, painter, and color theorist. He is frequently compared with William Blake by art historians, although Runge's short ten-year career is not easy to equate to Blake's career. By all accounts he had a brilliant mind and was well versed in theology, literature, and science. Together with Caspar David Friedrich, Runge is often regarded as one of the leading painters of the German Romantic movement.
The Painting: The Hülsenbeck Children
The Hülsenbeck Children (1805-06) by Philipp Otto Runge is a masterpiece that showcases his unique style and innovative approach to child portraiture. This oil on canvas painting, which measures 131.5 x 143.5 cm, is now in the collection of the Kunsthalle Hamburg.
The painting depicts three of Hülsenbeck's children playing in the garden at their home in Eimsbüttel on the outskirts of Hamburg. It shows the three children, Maria, August, and Friedrich, from their eye level living in their own world and attempts to record their individual personalities. Treating children in this way, rather than as young adults clustered round the feet of their parents, was quite innovative at the time and helped to permanently change the way that children were recorded in German art.
