Carl Arp

Village on the Water (1893)

Carl Arp (3 January 1867 – 6 January 1913) was a German landscape painter born in Kiel. He taught in Weimar and had exhibitions in Munich, Berlin, Kiel, Jena and Düsseldorf.[1][2] He is best known as a founding member of the Schleswig-Holsteinische Kunstgenossenschaft and representative of the Weimar Saxon-Grand Ducal Art School (Grossherzoglich-Sächsische Kunstschule Weimar).[3] Subsequent to his studies there under Theodor Hagen and Leopold von Kalckreuth, he spent several years in Italy.[4] Carl Arp is viewed as one of the main representatives of the "en plein air" style of landscape painting.[5]
