Emil Bauch

Emil Bauch was a German painter, lithographer and teacher who came to reside in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He painted panoramic city scenes and portraits, as well as some views of Recife and Salvador. His landscapes are conspicuous by his close observation of all the details and the intense variety of motifs of his palette. His works have all but disappeared in the shadow of paintings created by other artists during the second half of the nineteenth century in Brazil.
