Caspar Johann Nepomuk Scheuren
Caspar Johann Nepomuk Scheuren was an artist active during a concentrated period between 1820 and 1842. The verifiable record of Scheuren’s output resides primarily in works on paper, specifically focusing on printmaking and detailed draftsmanship rooted in landscape subjects.
Scheuren’s preserved oeuvre is represented in major international institutions by 9 prints, 5 complete portfolios, and 1 drawing. The surviving body of work reflects a consistent interest in depicting topographical, often mountainous, environments, frequently incorporating architecture or narrative elements. Examples of documented works include Berglandschap met rivier (Mountain landscape with river), Brug en een huis in een berglandschap (Bridge and a house in a mountain landscape), and the seasonal study, Chapel in Winter. Other notable pieces held in collections are Boulder with a Shepherd and Goats and Castle and Stream.
The limited but significant collection of Caspar Johann Nepomuk Scheuren prints is preserved in important institutions, most notably the Rijksmuseum and the National Gallery of Art. The presence of these works in respected museum collections establishes the artist's historical relevance. Many of the artist’s extant works have entered the public domain, allowing institutions to provide high-quality prints and downloadable artwork for scholarly research and public access.
