Paintings 1853 - 1855

Bridell’s apprenticeship was renewed in 1853 and he left for the continent.

He spent some time in Paris and copied work in the Louvre.  Travelling on to Germany he settled in Munich for a time.  He was particularly inspired by the dramatic backdrop of the mountains in Bavaria, the Kaiserspitz.  Here he was also drawn to the harmonious lifestyle of the peasants as well as detailing the natural vegetation of the forests and valleys.

Paintings from this period by Bridell are listed below, their current locations are unknown, sizes are in Cms:
