Carl Schweninger Jr.

Art Appreciation

Before photography, paintings gave us a visual recording of yesteryear. Paintings have aided Hollywood in replicating historical settings and recreating fashion from that time to make movies.

I recently came across paintings by Carl Schweninger, Jr. in a couple of blogs I follow. The Morning Star caught my attention that I needed to learn more about the artist. Unfortunately, not much has been written about Carl Schweninger, Jr. or at least not on the web.

The information that I did find was that he was the son of the famous German landscape painter, Carl Schweninger and he was born in 1854.

You can find some of his paintings on Pinterest HERE or at the links below.
