Arnold Bocklin - LoveToKnow 1911 (482 words)
ARNOLD BOCKLIN (1827-1901), Swiss painter, was born at Basel on the 16th of October 1827.
BOcklin then went to Paris, worked at the Louvre, and painted several landscapes; his " Landscape and Ruin " reveals at the same time a strong feeling for nature and a dramatic conception of scenery.
From 1876 to 1885 Bocklin was working at Florence, and painted a " Pieta," " Ulysses and Calypso," " Prometheus," and the " Sacred Grove." From 1886 to 1892 he settled at Zurich.
