Madonna and Child
74 x 62 cm Wallraf-Richartz Museum, Cologne The experience of Italy was not only decisive for the majority of German landscape artists of the nineteenth century but also for figurative painting, secular as well as sacred. In 1818 Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld moved to Rome from his home town of Leipzig. There he joined the Lukas-Bund (Guild of St Luke), an artists' group originally set up by Friedrich Overbeck and Franz Pforr in Vienna in opposition to the academy there. After Overbeck and Pforr had moved to Rome the Lukas-Bund exercised great influence (though Pforr died in 1812), and not only on the German artists in Rome. The members of the group, called the 'Nazarenes' after their long hair like Christ's, wanted to return to what they saw as the simple truth and piety of Derer and the early Italian Renaissance. They tried in their work to employ the forms, style and colour of the Old Masters. The composition and clear luminous colour of the Madonna and Child illustrates Schnorr's intensive, creative relationship with the Italian Renaissance.

The View of the Archpriest in
230 x 305 mm Albertinum, Dresden Schnorr was considered the best draughtsman of the Brotherhood of St. Luke. Like no other artist, he knew how to exploit the potential of the sepia technique. He drew in pen over pencil before applying wash with a brush. His works are characterized by dark and illuminated sections, dynamic sketching within the contours of objects and gently curving contours of line, as in this picture.
