Charles Hoguet: a portrait of the artist
The Life and Training of Charles Hoguet
Born in Berlin, Germany, to a family of Huguenot descent, Charles Hoguet was the son of Michel François Hoguet and Emilie Hoguet-Vestris. His artistic journey began in his hometown, where he studied painting under Wilhelm August Krause at the Academy of Arts starting in 1839. Seeking further refinement, the eighteen-year-old traveled to Paris in 1840. During his time in France, he studied under Eugène Cicéri and later, from 1842, under Eugène Isabey. His technical skill and craftsmanship earned him significant recognition in France, including a gold medal at the Paris Salon in 1848.
Artistic Focus and Legacy
After traveling through Western Europe, Hoguet returned to Berlin in 1848, where he lived and worked until his death. His prolific output included 423 oil paintings, with a particular focus on marine subjects, sea coasts, the sea, Normandy, Helgoland, and still lifes. His work was frequently exhibited at academic art exhibitions in Berlin, earning him a gold medal there in 1859 and an induction into the Berlin Academy in 1869. His subject matter spanned various genres, including windmills, sailors, and landscapes. His artistic legacy also includes his stepdaughter, Elise Hedinger, who was his pupil.
