    HUGO NAHL WOODED LANDSCAPE GOUACHE & OIL PASTEL ON PAPER

    Est: -

    Hugo Wilhelm Arthur Nahl (1833 - 1889) Wooded Landscape Gouache & Oil Pastel on Paper. Born in Kassel, Germany in 1883 into a long line of artists. Arthur studied art with his brother Charles at the Kassel Academy. In 1846 the two brothers moved to Paris where they studied with Vernet and Delaroche. Caught up in the French Revolution, they decamped to NYC in 1849 and two years later sailed for California in search of gold. The brothers worked for a few months in the gold fields, but soon abandoned mining for an art studio in Sacramento. The great fire of 1852 burned most of the city as well as their studio. They then settled in San Francisco where Arthur worked with his brother as a commercial artist, portrait painter, engraver, and daguerreotyper. His commercial work included re-designing the California state seal. The Nahl brothers were fine athletes; the gymnasium in their backyard was the crude beginnings of the Olympic Club and served as its headquarters from 1855-60. After his marriage in 1865 to Annie Sweeney, Arthur moved across the bay to Alameda where he remained.
