 * Reason:Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781 – 1841) was a German architect, city planner and painter, know for his Romantic paintings. The Napoleonic wars interfered with his work as architect, so he took up landscape painting while he was not able to work in his occupation, displaying a talent for the romantic delineation of natural scenery.

 * Support – EV: Expands the artist's persona. I'd always heard of him as an architect and designer. (He designed the Iron Cross medal in 1813.) I didn't realize he was also a painter. Sca (talk) 13:59, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
