German, 1840 - 1887
Follow

In 1858, Schick began studying at the Royal Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin with Wilhelm Schirmer. He spent the period from 1861 to 1862 in Bavaria, mainly in Munich and Brannenburg. Then he continued his studies in Berlin. In the summer of 1864 he received the great State Prize for History Painter for the picture Prometheus Mourned by Oceanus and the Nereids, which allowed him to visit Paris and London. Schick also visited Tyrol and Italy .

In Rome he was influenced by Arnold Böcklin. In 1868, Jacob Burckhardt brokered the order for Karl Sarasin to furnish Böcklin with three frescoes in a garden room in his house in Basel.

In 1869, Schick returned to Berlin. Back in Italy, he copied several paintings from the Italian Renaissance on behalf of the art collector Fritz von Farenheid from Beynuhnen.

Schick provided 43 illustrations for the work "Italy" published by Engelhorn Verlag in Stuttgart. Married in 1879, he visited Italy again with his young wife. He died in Berlin eight years later.
