Constantin Kluge was born in Riga on January 29, 1912 then a large industrial port city in the Russian Empire. Of Russian parents, his father was a graduate of the Polytechnic Institute of Riga and his mother a Professor of Literature. Kluge's father was mobilized in the Czar's army in 1914 and during the subsequent civil war in Russia, the artist's childhood was spent in moving constantly from one end of Russia to the other. When Kluge was eight years old the family emigrated to North China, settling in Shanghai, where Kluge graduated from the French Municipal College. By the time he was seventeen, he was a very active member of the Shanghai Art Club. At this period of his life he also took up the violin and cello, and later in Paris gave music lessons to help him with his expenses. Meanwhile, his parents had decided that pure art was not a dependable career, and so in 1931 Kluge left Shanghai for Paris to study architecture. He spent six years at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and in 1937 graduated with the title of French Government Architect.

Constantin Kluge
Constantin Kluge was a Russian-born French painter best known for his naturalistic scenes of Paris and French countryside in a style reminiscent of Albert Marquet. Kluge was born to a wealthy military family on January 29, 1912 in Riga, Latvia, which was then a large, industrial Russian port city. He spent much of his childhood and young adult life between Manchuria, Beijing, and Hong Kong, where he discovered a love for brush and ink painting. Kluge studied architecture at the École des Beaux Arts in Paris and earned his diploma in 1937. Upon graduating, he painted the city’s river banks and streets before returning to Shanghai. With the rise of Communism in China, the artist fled to Paris in 1950 and began exhibiting in the French Salons. He was a success both artistically and financially. Of his many awards, he received the Gold Medal, Salon des Artistes Francais and was made Chevalier de la Legion d’Honneur by the French Government. He died on January 9, 2003 in Paris, France.
