Louis Douzette

Carl Ludwig Christoph Douzette, known as Louis (25 September 1834, Tribsees - 21 February 1924, Barth) was a German landscape painter.

At the age of fourteen, he graduated from secondary school and began working with his father's company, as a decorative painter.

During slow periods, he was given drawing lessons by his father, who had attended the Prussian Academy of Arts as a boy.

During a visit to Paris, in 1878, he was influenced by the Barbizon School and took up painting en plein aire.

His moody pictures of night landscapes earned him the nickname "Moonlight Douzette".
