The painter Carl Haag, who was born in Erlangen on 20 April 1820, became famous for his colourful oriental scenes and lifelike portraits. He was an English watercolour, miniature and portrait painter and etcher. He was the son of a baker and attended the Nuremberg School of Art at the age of 16 until he decided to continue his education at the Academy of Art in Munich. Already at these early times he achieved his first successes. He then continued his education in Brussels. From 1847 onwards, Hague discovered watercolour painting for himself. This fascinated him so much that he began studying at the Royal Academy in 1848, the year of the revolution. Only two years later he was an extraordinary member of the Royal Water Colour Society.
Through the Duke Ernst II of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Haag got to know Queen Victoria. From her he got several orders. Among them the well-known painting "Evening at Balmoral". Especially because of his realistically exact miniatures he was a much sought-after portrait painter in aristocratic circles. During his study trips through Egypt and Syria he was interested in oriental subjects. In 1867 he had already set up a large studio in Hampstead (London) in the oriental style.
In Oberwesel he acquired the so-called "Red Tower" in 1864 and converted it into a summer residence with a studio. There he lived until his death with his wife Ida, whom he married in 1866, in the tower now named after him. Carl Haags paintings are shown in numerous exhibitions. Among them also in Vienna, Paris and Munich. The International Carl Hague Society was founded for Hague on 17 January 2015 in his home town Oberwesel.
