Hannes Rosenow

Hannes Rosenow (5 May 1925 in Ratibor – 28 July 2000 in Munich) was a German portrait and landscape painter.

Study trips took him to Italy, France, Yugoslavia and Greece, portrait commissions to the USA.

"Clear and austere stand the motives on the canvas; their distinctive mark is not gracefulness, but a balance between calm and tension.

... His landscapes are fascinating portraits of a detail of nature; no random views, but well arranged insights and interpretations generalized to the typical and universal.

[4] His work is owned by the city of Munich, the State of Bavaria, but mostly by private collectors in Germany, Belgium, France, Italy, Switzerland, England and in the USA.
