A VIEW OF THE TEMPLE OF THE TIBURTINE SIBYL IN TIVOLI

Watercolour. 33.5 x 25.5 cm.
C Werner f. 1839.

Carl Werner was first a pupil of the Leipzig and then of the Munich Academy. In 1832 he received a substantial grant for a study trip to Italy after submitting several studies. He was a member of the Deutscher Künstler Verein in Rome from 1845, and became its first president. He founded a studio for watercolour painting in Venice in 1851, and returned to Germany in 1856, where he settled in Leipzig and took up the teaching post for watercolour at the academy there. His works can be found in many museums, for example in Berlin, Leipzig, Munich and London.
