Born in Neuplachowitz, Silesia, the artist found his motifs on journeys that extended across the European continent. With his study trips to numerous countries, however, Kaufmann was not an isolated case - many of his contemporaries sought painting motifs outside their familiar surroundings and therefore embarked on artistic discovery tours.
Karl Kaufmann's preferred artistic medium was oil paint, with which he painted his impressive landscapes and architectural views on canvas or wooden panels. Kaufmann's naturalistic paintings tell stories of excursions into sunny fjord landscapes, walks along dreamy coastlines, tell of the summer freshness of icy mountain lakes and visits to the cultural and commercial metropolises of his time. They report on Kaufmann's stays in Italy, Germany, Holland, Norway and the Ottoman Empire. Among the artist's favourite motifs, however, are probably the city vedute of Venice, which he usually let shine in the warm light of the evening sun and executed in countless versions. There are also some historical views of the city of Istanbul by Karl Kaufmann, which depict the colourful hustle and bustle of the oriental trading centre and are particularly popular with private collectors.
After his creative period as a travelling artist, Karl Kaufmann returned permanently to his adopted city of Vienna in 1900, where he once studied at the world-renowned Academy of Fine Arts. He graduated successfully from this academy, which places him among a number of famous contemporary painters, such as the Viennese Rudolf von Alt. Apart from Karl Kaufmann's training and study trips, little is known about the life of the Austrian landscape painter. The artist signed his works with various pseudonyms, such as "Charles Marchand", "H. Carnier" or "C. Charpentier". The use of over 40 artist names is well known, under which Kaufmann's paintings can be identified. The reasons for the excessive use of aliases in Kaufmann's work and whether they are related to the contents of the paintings has not yet been fully clarified. The majority of the works attributed to the painter Karl Kaufmann are in private ownership and are offered at auctions of various renowned art dealers, such as Sotheby's or Christie's.
