DĂĽsseldorf School
The DĂĽsseldorf School of painting refers to a group of painters who taught or studied at the DĂĽsseldorf Academy (now the Staatliche Kunstakademie DĂĽsseldorf or DĂĽsseldorf State Art Academy) in the 1830s and 1840s, when the Academy was directed by the painter Wilhelm von Schadow. The work of the DĂĽsseldorf School is characterized by finely detailed yet still fanciful landscapes, often with religious or allegorical stories set in the landscapes.
