About the artist, Arnold Böcklin
1827–1901, Switzerland
Arnold Böcklin
The Shadow of the Isle Basel, Switzerland, provides the starting point for a life defined by the tension between the tangible and the spectral. Born on October 16, 1827, to Christian Frederick Böcklin and Ursula Lippe, the young man would eventually move beyond the silk trade of his father to the rigorous halls of the Düsseldorf Academy. Under the guidance of Schirmer, he began to absorb the language of landscape, a skill that would later be used to map the geography of the human soul. He did not merely paint scenery; he constructed realms where the classical and the macabre collide.
