Paul Eduard Maximilian Bürde (born 28 November 1830;[1] – 23 May 1874) was a German painter and illustrator.
Life
Born in Upper Silesia, Bürde was the fifth child of Ernst Bürde and his wife Pauline Rambach. He grew up in Rosniontau.[2] His uncle was the Berlin academy professor and animal painter Friedrich Leopold Bürde, husband of the singer and pianist Anna Milder-Hauptmann. A further uncle was the building councillor Georg Heinrich Bürde, whose daughter-in-law, the singer Jenny Bürde-Ney, was portrayed by Paul Bürde.[3] Bürde's grandfather was the poet and court councillor Samuel Gottlieb Bürde. On 28 November 1856 he married his cousin Katarina (1837-1917), the daughter of his uncle Georg Heinrich.[4][5]
At the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin he made a portrait of his teacher Eduard Daege.[6] Well known is his picture Diskussion im Frankfurt Parliament, in which Bürde as an eyewitness of the parliamentary sessions portrayed many important politicians of the German revolutions of 1848-1849. Another well-known picture is Homage to Kaiser Wilhelm I. (1871), by which Emperor Wilhelm I was put in a row with Martin Luther, Frederick the Great and Field Marshal Blücher because of the foundation of the German Empire and thus painterly reproduced the Borussian historiography of Heinrich von Treitschke. (German Historical Institute Washington DC), retrieved 14 September 2020. In Berlin, Bürde was active until his death as genre painting and portrait painter of Berlin personalities as well as illustrator of the magazine Die Gartenlaube. The painter Ludwig Pietsch also highlighted Bürde as a "painter of watercolour pictures of official events at the royal court and in the royal family".[7]
