Beitrag zur Kunstgeschichte, Dresden, 1891, I, p.6, no. 126, as 'Abfahr der Häringsflotte bei Scheveningen'. Andreas Achenbach began his art education at the age of 12 at the Düsseldorf Academy of Painting under Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow (1789-1862). In his early work he followed the idealism of the German Romantic School, but following his move to Munich in 1835, the influence of Louis Gurlitt (1812-1897) turned his talent in a new direction. Achenbach was a prominent member of the Düsseldorf School and one of the founders of the German Realistic School. This work is a large scale example of Achenbach's adeptness at capturing the atmosphere of simple fisher life on the coast of the North Sea. The precise detailing visible in the various figures on the beach and in the ships that are seen off on their heavy labour, creates a powerful and expressive realism within the painting. The brightly lit group of fisherwomen in the middle of the composition, with the sun illuminating their white caps, contrast beautifully with the darks and browns of the other onlookers and with the earth colours of the sails.

LA BIOGRAFIA DI Andreas Achenbach

ACHENBACH Andreas Pittore e incisore tedesco (Kassel 1815 - Dusseldorf 1910).
Autore di paesaggi e marine, fu influenzato profondamente dai pittori paesisti di Monaco e di Dusseldorf.
In questa città studiò presso la Kunstakademie e fu allievo di Schadow e di Lessing.
Viaggiò spesso nei Paesi nordici, in particolare in Olanda e in Scandinavia.
Tra il 1834 e il 1835 realizzò numerose marine, conosciute come Coste Normanne.
Tra il 1843 e il 1845 soggiornò anche in Italia, dove, influenzato dalle vedute della costa di Capri iniziò ad ampliare la tavolozza dei suoi colori.
Nel 1846 si stabilì definitivamente in Germania, diventando così uno degli esponenti più significativi della Scuola di Dusseldorf.
Insieme al fratello Oswald può essere considerato il fondatore della moderna scuola paesistica tedesca.
La lotta dell'uomo contro la natura è soggetto che ricorre maggiormente nei dipinti degli anni Sessanta, mentre negli anni Settanta dipinse soprattutto barche e ritratti di marinai.
Attivo fino alla vecchiaia inoltrata, dipinse più di mille quadri, con prevalenza assoluta di marine e paesaggi.
Non fu mai maestro di accademia ma ebbe molti allievi, tra cui H.
F.
Gude, W.
Wittredge, A.
P.
Bogoljuboff, A.
Flamm e il fratello minore Oswald.
