From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Anna Katrina)
Flowers, circa 1660-1718

Anna Katharina Block (1642–1719) was a German Baroque flower painter.

Biography

[edit]

She was born Anna Katharina Fischer in Nuremberg. According to Houbraken she was the daughter of the flower painter Johann Thomas Fischer who taught her to paint.[1] She was good at painting flowers in water colors and in oils, and taught the Duchess Anna Maria of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, the wife of the Duke August von Sachsen, and their daughters in Halle, Saxony-Anhalt in the 1660s.[1] She married the painter Benjamin Block[2] in 1664 and was still alive when Joachim von Sandrart was writing his Teutsche Academie, which is where Houbraken took his data from.[1] She died in Regensburg in 1719.
