- Künstlerbiographie: Eduard Gaertner was a German painter of the 19th century. He took his first drawing lessons at the age of ten. In 1813 he started as an apprentice at Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur (KPM) in Berlin. During this period he also studied drawing at the Academy of Art. After his training at the porcelain works he became a decorative artist under the court painter Carl Wilhelm Gropius in 1821, as well as creating stage designs based on plans by Karl Friedrich Schinkel. He later devoted himself to architecture painting, receiving commissions from the Prussian court and Friedrich Wilhelm II directly. His time in Paris, where he stayed for three years, influenced his work greatly, during which he was also exposed to and impressed by English watercolour painters of the likes of John Constable. In 1828 he returned to Berlin where he worked as an independent painter. Gaertner is appreciated for his detailed but vivid depiction of city architecture and he created a number of pictures of Berlin city scenes. In 1833 he became a member of the Academy of Art. After the death of Friedrich Wilhelm II, who had been a keen patron of his art, Gaertner’s style changed, abandoning the clarity of Neoclassicism in favour of Romantic elements, befitting the spirit of the time and the personal taste of the new king. His sexpartite panorama of Berlin is considered the pinnacle of his life’s work. Other famous compositions are 'Berlin, Unter den Linden' (1852/53) and 'Parochialstraße in Berlin' (1831).
