Rudolf Bredow

Who was Rudolf Bredow?

Rudolf Bredow, German post-expressionist painter, draughtsman and art teacher.

Bredow’s lifework became famous only after his death. It comprises ca. 1000 documented works and numerous previously unreleased drawings. “Bredow’s best works are classical in their simplicity and balance and are equal or quite often even superior to Schmidt-Rottluff’s late black-rimmed watercolour paintings, for instance.” The artist is considered to be “one of the greatest discoveries of the German art market during the 90’s”.
