Biography: Rudolph Koppitz is one of the most important photographers of the Vienna Art Nouveau. He is an Austrian artist of Czech origin. He was born near Bruntal to a poor evangelical family. He attended a vocational school only thanks to a scholarship. In 1897, he enrolled with Robert Rotter of Bruntal , a test conducted in 1901 . Koppitz began the career of a custom photographer in small ateliers. He worked in the studios in Opava and in Brno near C. Pietzner. He owned studios in Berlin , St. Petersburg , Moscow , Warsaw and Vienna . This environment played an important role for him because he met a prominent audience here.
In 1912, he decided to leave the trade to go back to school at the Graphic Training and Education Institute in Vienna. He recognized the ranks of his future colleagues (eg JA Trcka photographer or Egon Schiele's painter and graphic artist). Koppitz became a member of the Wiener Camera Club. In his free creation, he used techniques of carbon, bromo, and rubber . His photos capture significant Viennese monuments and moody landscapes that capture wild, uncultivated nature. Koppitz's photos show mountains and sea. From 1913, he was an assistant and after World War I was a teacher at the Graphic Institute in Vienna .
