Oswald Sickert

Self portrait (c. 1844)

Oswald Adalbert Sickert (21 February 1828 – 11 November 1885) was a Danish artist, considered a painter of dramatic genre, landscapes and an engraver from the English school.

Early life

He was born in Altona, then in Denmark, the son of Johann Jürgen Sickert (1803–1864), who was also a painter and engraver.

He received his formal training from his father and at the Copenhagen Académie in Denmark from 1844 to 1846. In 1852, he traveled to Munich to complete his studies, and thereafter to Paris for six months, before moving permanently to London.

Career

He left Munich to settle in England at the time of the Great Exhibition, Oswald's work having been recommended by Freiin Rebecca von Kreusser to Ralph Nicholson Wornum, who was Keeper of the National Gallery in London at the time.

He opened a studio in London and eventually became a British citizen. His successful career as an artist included exhibitions at the British Institute, Grosvenor Gallery and several other London galleries.

Personal life

He married Eleanor Louisa Henry, the illegitimate daughter of the English astronomer Richard Sheepshanks (1794–1855).[citation needed]

He had five sons and one daughter.

  • Oswald Valentine, author, salesman and international traveller for Encyclopædia Britannica.[1]
  • Robert, a recluse who died from injuries when he was hit by a lorry.[citation needed]
  • Leonard, who died after a long battle with substance abuse.[citation needed]
  • Walter Sickert (1860–1942), an influential impressionist painter and printmaker.
  • Bernhard, a painter and architectural engraver, suffered from depression and alcoholism.[citation needed]
  • Helena (1864–1939), later Helena Swanwick, a suffragist and pacifist.

None of his children produced grandchildren.

He is buried in Brompton Cemetery, London.
