After abandoning a career as a lawyer, Michael Haubtmann, who was originally from Prague, moved to the aspiring painter's metropolis of Munich in 1875. There, as a pupil of Julius Lange (1817 - 1878), he discovered and expanded his skills in landscape painting, which he demonstrated on extensive travels. On his excursions he explored canonical sites of the classical Grand Tour, such as the aqueducts of the Roman Campagna or the ancient theatre in Taormina, as well as Egyptian temples and pyramids, but also Swiss mountain lakes or rugged rocky coasts in Greece. Away from his Mediterranean expeditions, adventurous forays took him to lonely fjord landscapes in Norway, whose mystically transfigured, suggestive twilight he masterfully captured in numerous works.
