Henriette Jügel

Henriette Elisabetha Jeanette Jügel (11 January 1778, Remagen - 12 March 1850, Gummersbach) was a German landscape and portrait painter.

After unsuccessful attempts to establish a textile dyeing business in several cities, her family moved to Berlin in 1785.

She studied landscape and portrait painting, with a focus on miniatures, in special women's classes at the Berlin Academy.

She also gave drawing and painting lessons to her nieces, Adeline, Alwine and Louise, all of whom became artists.

She was financially supported by her brother Carl, and lived in her brother-in-law Heinrich's home, where she died at the age of seventy-two in 1850.
