Although he preceded the jugendstil art movement, Richter’s work was featured in at least one issue of Jugend, around twenty years after he had passed away. A longtime painter and illustrator of children’s books and fairy tales, he was considered a national treasure at that point. Heavily influenced by Romanticism, his style does come across as somewhat quaint today, but his compositions are detailed and masterful.
