19th Century European Gypsy Caravan Landscape

Circa 1870

About the Item

Wonderful small-scale mid 19th Century European landscape with gypsy figures and caravan by Pal Paul Bohm (Hungarian, 1839-1906), circa 1870. Signed lower right with "Munchen" location notation. On verso "Modify aus Ungarn", (Hungary). Unframed. Image size: 4.25"H x 9.13"W. Born in Hungary in 1839, Pál Böhm had inherited his drawing talents from his father. After having served in a children's company and having worked in a military arms factory during the Hungarian War of Independence, he started an apprenticeship as a carpenter and coppersmith. Around 1855 Böhm worked as a decorative painter, after that he earned his living as traveling actor. Then he took painting lessons in his hometown Nagyvárad as the pupil of Antal Haan. In 1862 Böhm spent some time in Debrecen, Pest and in Vienna, where he copied the great masters in the National Gallery and the Belvedere. Sometime after this he opened his own painting school in Arad, where the Impressionist László Paál became his best pupil. 1867 saw Böhm moving to Pest, there he however had to again join the traveling theater, due to material difficulties. From 1871 onwards he was able to study at the academy of Munich with the help of a state scholarship, where he eventually became a permanent resident. Later he was particularly active as art dealer. Böhm's works can today be seen in many museum throughout the world, for example at the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest, at the Museum of the City of Cologne, at the Neue Pinakothek in Munich, at the Manchester Museum and the Milwaukee Art Center.
