The father of Johann Friedrich Overbeck was Christoph Adolph Overbeck, senator and long-time mayor of the city of Lübeck and a very pious man. The young Friedrich was interested in drawing at a young age and was taught the art of painting by an old sergeant named Mau. Although his father was not really pleased, at the age of 15 Frederick managed to get an apprenticeship with the well-known painter Joseph Nikolaus Peroux, who lived in Lübeck at the time. At the age of 17 he left his parents' house and moved to Vienna, where he continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts. Overbeck then went to Rome with two painter friends, Ludwig Vogel and Franz Pforr. They were joined by Philipp Veit and Peter von Cornelius. The friends lived together in a kind of monastic community and founded the "Lukasbund", which was dedicated to the renewal of art in the sense of the Christian religion. Therefore they called themselves "The Nazarenes" and showed their Christian attitude also by their hairstyle - long hair parted in the middle. A pencil drawing by Carl Philipp Fohr shows Overbeck with this hairstyle. The so-called Nazarene art was oriented towards painters of the Renaissance such as Albrecht Dürer, Giotto and Fra Angelico and mainly dealt with religious motifs.
Friedrich Overbeck had his great artistic breakthrough in 1817, when he, together with the painters Veit, Cornelius and von Schadow, frescoed the residence of the Prussian ambassador in Rome and later also the Casino Massimo, which, among other things, told the legend of St. Joseph. Also very famous are the painting "Triumph of Religion in the Arts", "The Lithograph "Entry of Christ into Jerusalem", "The Resurrection of Lazarus" and the portrait of Pope Pius IX. The artist turned 80 years old and survived his wife Anna and his two daughters who died at an early age, as well as his only son. He was buried in the church of San Bernardo delle Terme in Rome. His works can be seen in various museums. A large collection of paintings by Johann Friedrich Overbeck is in the Lübeck Museum Behnhaus, together with paintings by other "Nazarenes".
