Ferdinand Lüder Arenhold (May 7, 1854 – June 16, 1915) was a German marine painter who was best known for his reconstruction paintings ands drawings of the Reichsflotte and the Preußische Marine.[1]

Life

Arenhold probably joint the Imperial German Navy at the beginning of the 1870s, and left in 1881 as a Kapitänleutnant of the Seewehr to work as a painter. In the naval service, he had visited South America and China. In Hamburg he took lessons from the painters Heinrich Leitner and Franz Johann Wilhelm Hünten, 1886/87 he was a master student of Hans Gude at the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin.[2]

From 1887 on until his death, he lived in Kiel. Arenhold preferred oil painting; subjects were merely ships of the Imperial Navy and historical fleets. He attached great attention to details, especially in technical matters, but also didn't neglect geographical details. He was particularly interested in the pre-history of the Imperial Navy, including the Reichsflotte. His representations are considered the first attempts to reconstruct the appearance of the units, of which often only rough representations existed.

Nothing is known about his privat life. He died at the age of 61 in Kiel.[3](J. Schlick: Arenhold, Lüder, in: Allgemeines Künstlerlexikon.
