There, the talented boy learned the trade of copper engraver from his uncle in Cincinnati.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe was able to train as a portrait and genre painter thanks to a scholarship from King Wilhelm I of Württemberg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe worked as a portrait painter for the Princes of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, who recommended him to their royal relatives. He was called to Great Britain by Albert Edward Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (1841-1910; known as \"Bertie\"), Prince of Wales and later King Edward VII of Great Britain and Ireland and Emperor of India, to paint portraits of the royal family. Portraits of children in particular are Bauerle's trademark. Several portraits of princes and families from the British court at that time can be seen in the museum at Sandringham House. He lived with his family in London from 1870, where his first wife, Amalie Irion, died after just six months, giving birth to their fifth child.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1872 and 1873, the family stayed temporarily in Stuttgart and then in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, where his young son, born in London, died of scarlet fever. In the spring of 1873, Karl Bauerle married his second wife, Mathilde, née Erhardt, and moved with the family to London for good. He became a British citizen in 1876. \"The number of three surviving siblings from his first marriage increased over time by five more ... two siblings each (from the first and second marriage) died at a tender age.\" (From the curriculum vitae of Wilhelm Konrad Bauerle, 3rd son from 1st marriage, born 1867, pastor in Württemberg).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom 1st June 1900, he lived with his son (Karl) Theodor Bauerle for several years each summer in Hülben in the \"Villa\", the former studio building of Carl (Theodor) Bubeck, which the Pietist schoolmaster Johannes Kullen had inherited. He painted several portraits of this teacher. In nearby Urach (Württemberg), today Bad Urach, he worked with his son Theodor in 1900\/1901 on the decoration of the Amandus Church, named after St. Amandus of Maastricht, in the neo-Gothic \"Dolmetsch style\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree children followed in their father's footsteps and became artists: Karl Theodor Bauerle from the first marriage became a church painter and often worked closely with his father on large murals. Amalie Bauerle from the second marriage became well known as an Art Nouveau children's book illustrator and Martha Bauerle also as a book and calendar illustrator.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"bauerle-carle-1831-1912-posy-for-grandma","title":"Bauerle, Carle (1831-1912) - Posy for Grandma","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtwork featuring a child with a bunch of poppies by the German artist Carle Bauerle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image in JPEG format that is 600dpi and 3913 pixels wide by 4851 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003cspan\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/bauerle-carle\" title=\"Carle Bauerle\"\u003eCarle Bauerle\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61256008270154,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Bauerle_Carle_1831-1912_-PosyforGrandma_main.jpg?v=1772671451"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/collections\/Bauerle_Carle_1831-1912-3688107.jpg?v=1772671367","url":"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/bauerle-carle.oembed","provider":"Public Domain Image Library","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
