  Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The artists engaged were Schadow, Cornelius, Overbeck and Veit; the subject selected was the story of Joseph and his brethren, and two scenes, the "Bloody Coat" and "Joseph in Prison," fell to the lot of Schadow.
Schadow was in 1819 appointed professor in the Berlin Academy, and his ability and thorough training gained devoted disciples.
Schadow died at Düsseldorf in 1862, and a monument in the square which bears his name was raised at the jubilee held to commemorate his directorate.

 Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow
Schadow did not at first take up the ideal fresco, as did the masters at Munich, but devoted himself to oil-painting; nor did he attempt great historical subjects, but the more modest forms of art.
Schadow held fast to the principle of the Romantic school, that more weight should be placed upon the conception than the form.
It should, however, be remarked that Schadow, notwithstanding his study from nature, never fully overcame the weakness of the Romantic school, and although he was three times in Italy, where he studied the masters, he exhibited less original force than a graceful talent.

 Johann Gottfried Schadow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Johann Gottfried Schadow (*May 20, 1764, †January 27, 1850), sculptor, was born and died in Berlin, where his father was a poor tailor.
He is claimed by classicists and idealists: the quadriga on the Brandenburger Thor and the allegorical frieze on the facade of the Royal Mint, both in Berlin, are judged among the happiest studies from the antique.
His sons Rudolph Schadow and Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow were notable for sculpture and painting, respectively.

 Quadriga by SCHADOW, Johann Gottfried
In 1789 Schadow started work on the piece that counts as the most monumental large Neoclassical sculpture in Berlin - the Quadriga on the Brandenburg Gate.
Schadow did the drawings for it from equestrian models in the Royal Stables and the veterinary School.
For this, Schadow's plaster model was transferred to a large wooden model by a carpenter's workshop, which was then covered with sheet copper by a coppersmith.

He was a student of Johannes Franciscus Hoppenbrouwers [1819—1866] and Pieter Stortenbeker [1828—1898] and studied at the Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten in The Hague.
In 1810 Schadow went with his brother, sculptor Ridolfo Schadow [09 Jun 1786 – 31 Jan 1822] to Rome, where in 1813 he became a member of the Lukasbrüder and, in 1814, a Catholic.
Schadow’s decorative painting was often combined with an idealistic and intellectual element, as in Poetry (1825), a winged figure standing on clouds over a coastal landscape writing the names of poets on a tablet while gazing upwards.

 Emanuel Lasker Gesellschaft: Schadows Schachclub
Three causes triggered the search for a “lost club”: a painting (the chess match by Johann Erdmann Hummel, 1819/20); a coincidental reference to the diaries of the famous sculptor Johann Gottfried Schadow, into which, from 1803 to his death in 1850, he entered regular Chess Club visits; and the rediscovery of the club's rules.
Schadow's notes gave hints not only to the objectives of this first chess club of Berlin and its members (the club was founded in 1803); it also names places dedicated to the game of chess and social gathering.
Closer inspection of the persons found in Schadow's notes and the club's member list opened up the social spectrum of a society that should be ascribed to Berlin's late Enlightenment period.

Schadow preferred the public collections for his tireless drawing from paintings and antique sculptures, but he also observed the Roman everyday life and did sketches of his familiy.
The group of drawings is now presented for the first time, featuring the various aspects of his Roman stay and showing how his ambition and application prepared Schadow for the prestigious sculptural challenges he was confronted with after his return to Berlin, first of all the famous Quadriga on the Brandenburg gate.
However later on they got in contact and Schadow visited Weimar several times, even if their relation was characterized by some misunderstandings.
