Ludwig Deutsch, who later became known as Louis Deutsch during his Paris years, was not only a master of the brush, but also an ambassador between cultures. His birth in the vibrant city of Vienna on May 13, 1855, marked the beginning of an artistic journey that would make him one of the most prominent painters of Orientalism, a style that brought the mystique and beauty of the Orient to the West. Every art print that comes from his portfolio is a tribute to this alluring interplay of cultures and a testament to our company's remarkable ability to reproduce his vision and passion in exquisite quality.
At a young age, influenced by the academic brilliance of Anselm Feuerbach and later Leopold Carl Müller at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts, Deutsch developed a critical eye and a deep passion for detail. Paris, the center of the European art world, called him in 1878. Here he deepened his studies under the watchful tutelage of Jean-Paul Laurens and struck up a friendship with the like-minded Austrian Orientalist Rudolf Ernst. The Oriental milieu he discovered in Paris enchanted him and inspired him to establish his own studio in the picturesque Rue Le Pelletier.
His trips to Egypt in 1886 and 1890 were not only a feast for the eyes, but also a broadening of his artistic horizons. Armed with sketchbook and camera, he absorbed the colors, smells and scenes of the Orient. These sketches and photographs later served as models for his oil paintings, which were created in his Paris studio. The turmoil of the First World War probably drew him to North Africa, but after its end he returned, accepted French citizenship and adapted his name to "Louis Deutsch". A name that stands for an impressive fusion of Viennese elegance and Oriental flair - a fusion that comes to life in every art print representing his work.
