BIOGRAPHY:
German Grobe was son of the merchant Johannes Grobe and his wife Amalie, born Eberhard. After he in his native city first lessons with George Cornicelius had received, he attended from 1873 to 1876 the Stadel Art Institute in Frankfurt am Main, where he student of Eduard Von Steinle was. In October 1877 Grobe went to Ludwig Von Lofftzat the Munich Art Academy and moved in 1879 to the Art Academy in Dusseldorf, where he was first a student of Eduard von Gebhardt was. From 1880 to 1883 he was a student of Eugen Ducker, one of the leading landscape painters in Germany. In preparation for the new teacher Grobe visited in the summer of 1879 eight weeks, the artist colony Ekensund on the northern shore of Flensburg Fjord. However, the decisive artistic impulse went for Grobe of Dückers predecessor Andreas Achenbach from whose realistic-pathetic seascapes in Germany for many years, the idea of the “picturesque Holland” imprinted.
Grobe took study trips to the coastal regions of Bordighera / Riviera (1881 and 1882), Le Treport / Normandie and Vlissingen (1882), Sylt and again Vlissingen (1883) and Ekensund (1884). Another study trip led him in 1884 after Egmond aan Zee.
