Hermann Corrodi Art
Italian, 1844-1905
Herman Corrodi was a Swiss Painter. He was the son of Salomon Corrodi. A New York Times obituary indicates that Hermann was born in Zurich, however his grave marker indicates that he was born in Frascati, which is near Rome.
Corrodi studied at the Accademia di S. Luca under his father, Salomon Corrodi (1810–1892) and in Paris (1872). He received commissions for history paintings from the British royal family and was acquainted with most of the European royalty of the time, including a friendship with Queen Victoria and travelled widely in the Far East, including Egypt, Syria, Cyprus and Istanbul, which provided the subject for many of his paintings.
He is the brother of Arnold Corrodi. Originally a landscape painter in the academic style, much of Hermann's work is also typical of the Orientalism style of the 19th century. In 1893 he was knighted 'Accademico di Merito' by the Accademia di San Luca, where he had been a professor.
The father of the Hermann Corrodi came to Rome early in the last century and established himself here as a watercolour painter. Hermann, who has just died, was born In the little town of Frascati, 12 miles from Rome. He inherited the talent of his father, and every encouragement and assistance to the development of his artistic faculties were given him. Like several other Roman artists, he was gifted with eye-memory, certain effects in nature and certain Impressions of subjects and land scapes remained clearly pictured in his min from the age of 6 years, and 20 years afterward he painted what he considered one of his best pictures from an impression received at that early age.
Like most other painters, Hermann Corrodi desired to study the works of contemporary painters In other countries. He, with his younger brother Arnold, was sent to Germany ; and they also passed some time with the painter Calame at Geneva. But it was in Paris that they felt themselves most benefited. There they were possessed with a great enthusiasm for the French school, and from this time onward there Is a complete change in their treatment of subjects and mode of work.
Hermann became the painter of poetic landscapes. The Mediterranean, with its blue waters and sun-bleached shores, the life and motion and colour of processions in the little cities on religious festivals and views near Rome In the ever-changing, ever-beautiful Campagna, formed the choice subjects of Corrodi's brush.(Biography provided by Chastelain & Butes)

Landscape Painting of Shepherds with Injured Lamb by Hermann Corrodi circa 1868
By Hermann Corrodi
Located in Shippensburg, PA
A brilliant genre composition capturing a family of shepherds as they tend to the wounded leg of a young lamb, each member of the family has a role - the father gently holds the lamb on his lap while his youngest son comforts the creature, watching his father intently as he empathizes entirely with the injured creature. The eldest son holds a brown sheep at bay while studying the way his father wraps the leg - he is absorbing the demonstration as his father leans towards him to help him see every aspect of how the leg is being cared for. The middle son is preparing fresh bandages in the pool of water below, but looks to his older brother with perhaps a hint of envy as he is left out of the details of the instruction.
The idyllic landscape juxtaposes exceptional story-telling, a very fine example that showcases Corrodi's uncanny ability to blend the genre and the landscape qualities with equal competence. It is luminous and draws the eye in with a complex vortex of foliage encircling the group as a thin ray of light pierces the translucent shadows of the grove to fully illuminate the figures. In the distance are flocks of sheep in the pasture before hills and mountains at the horizon.
Typical of his work, the painting is signed lower left "H. Corrodi Roma 68". It is housed in a very fine carved giltwood frame, probably being the first frame for the painting. We are happy to provide price
