About
Pieter Francis Peters war ein niederländischer Landschaftsmaler und Kunsthändler. Er entstamme, wie seine Ehefrau Heinrike Gertrude Mail, einer Malerfamilie. 1845 zog das Ehepaar nach Stuttgart, wo Peters von König Wilhelm ein Atelier im Alten Schloss erhielt. Er diente fortan der Königin Olga als Reisebegleiter. Zudem organisierte er eine permanente Kunstausstellung in Stuttgart, die als Inspirationsquelle für ortsansässigen Maler diente.
Zwischen 1896 und 1903 reiste Peters viermal im Sommer ins Schloss Köngen bei Stuttgart. Dort wird bis heute eine ansehnliche Sammlung von Werken der Familie Peters bewahrt, wie auch im Braith-Mali-Museum in Biberach an der Riss.
Pieter Francis Peters was a Dutch landscape painter and art dealer. Like his wife Heinrike Gertrude Mail, he came from a family of painters. In 1845, the couple moved to Stuttgart, where Peters was given a studio in the Old Palace by King Wilhelm. From then on, he served Queen Olga as a traveling companion. He also organized a permanent art exhibition held in Stuttgart, which served as a source of inspiration for local painters.
Peter's artistic beginnings display characteristics of Dutch Romanticism. However, his landscapes became increasingly impressionistic as time went on. His works emphasized the atmosphere and general aura of an image, focusing less on a realistic rendering of the surroundings. Between the summers of 1896 and 1903, Peters travelled to Köngen Castle, southeast of Stuttgart, four times. A respectable collection of works by the Peters family is preserved there and in the Braith-Mali Museum in Biberach an der Riss to this day.
