German Romantic Painter, 1777-1810 ..German painter, draughtsman and theorist. He stands alongside Caspar David Friedrich as a leading figure in German Romantic painting even though his early death restricted his oeuvre to relatively few stages of development. The enduring prominence of philosophical and theoretical concerns suggests that further work would have contributed to the history of ideas as well as to that of art. Runge's greatest influence was on later, largely 20th-century artists and thinkers rather than on his immediate contemporaries. While 19th-century developments certainly bore out Runge's claim for a new, symbolic role for landscape,  Related Paintings of Philipp Otto Runge :. | Rest on the Flight into Egypt (mk10) | Portrait of Friedrich August von Klinkowstrom | Narcissus | Portrait of Otto Sigismund, the artists son | Times of Day: Evening |
