Description
With his sights set on becoming a professional artist, Theodore Nocken received his basic painting training in Düsseldorf. He studied landscape painting with Johann Wilhelm Schirmer. He had to leave for military service in the third quarter of his final year. He eventually settled in Düsseldorf and became a landscape painter. His favorite locations were in the Austrian and Bavarian Alps, which he depicted in a romantic, idyllic style. He rarely painted in the Rhineland or Westphalia, areas that were popular with other landscape artists.
