Matthias Ranftl: liv og virke
The Academy and the Russian Court
Vienna, 1804. A child is born into a family where art lingers in the periphery; his grandfather had once traveled from Regensburg to settle in this city. His mother, an enthusiast of the arts, recognizes a spark in him early on. By 1817, the boy enters the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. He sits at the feet of Johann Baptist Lampi and Anton Petter, absorbing the rigors of drawing and history painting. The air in the studio is thick with the discipline of the old masters.
A shift occurs in 1819. A study trip through Switzerland and Germany pulls his gaze away from the structured halls of the Academy toward the sprawling landscapes of the natural world. He returns to Vienna changed, his focus narrowing onto the earth and sky. By 1826, he is no longer just a student but an exhibitor, presenting portraits and historical works that command attention at the Academy. That same year, the horizon expands further. He travels to Russia, finding himself in the imperial centers of Moscow and St. Petersburg. In these aristocratic circles, he secures commissions for portraits and finds work illustrating Pushkin’s Eugene Onegin.
The Shift to Genre and the Canine Subject
The return to Vienna marks a departure from the grandiosity of history painting. The artist moves toward the intimate, the rural, and the urban. He begins to capture the quiet rhythms of Biedermeier life. In 1836, a trip to London alongside Prince Paul Esterházy introduces him to the work of Edwin Landseer. This encounter acts as a hinge. The fascination with animals, specifically dogs, becomes a central pillar of his output. His ability to render the texture of fur and the character in an animal's eyes earns him the moniker “the Raphael of Dogs.”
His brush captures more than just anatomy; it captures a specific social atmosphere. He populates his scenes with:
- Detailed portraits of dogs that serve as protagonists in genre scenes.
- Sensitive depictions of rural and urban life.
- Illustrations for satirical works like the Republic of Animals.
Final Years in Vienna
By 1849, his status is solidified through his election as a full member of the Vienna Academy. He has moved from a student of history to a specialist of the particular. His later years involve experimentation with printmaking and the development of a unique galvanographic printing technique. The life he leads is that of a true romantic artist, deeply embedded in the Viennese cultural fabric. In 1854, the disease known as the Ruhr claims him in the suburb of Wieden. He is laid to rest in the Vienna Central Cemetery, leaving behind a body of work defined by its startling realism and an enduring affection for the creatures he painted.
