His Serenity, Albrecht Dalle, born on 1.III.1691 AN, in Walstadt (Whales), rector of the Chrysean Academy of Fine Arts since 1724 AN.
Formerly known as a juvenile painter whose idiosyncratic and impressionistic artwork first came to the notice of a wider audience during the Lanzerwaldian-Whaler War of 1709 AN. His occasionally fanciful depictions of the ESB Cossack raids conducted in the Green of Cibola were utilised as illustrations by the media in Whales, in the absence of permission for journalists and photographers to follow the razzia into Lanzerwald-claimed Monovia.
His early work was notable for a marked reluctance or inability to accurately depict the human form in a true to life manner. This was especially true with regards to the human face, which he would typically either leave formless or depict in the manner of a lumpen and misshapen form of flesh as a grotesquery. His period of study with the Benacian Academy greatly enhanced his technique, but regrettably he never seemed to master the depiction of human hands - although he would sometimes claim, in order to justify the strange and wondrous profusion of excess digits in his works, that his subjects tended to be amongst those myriads adversely affected by the mutations brought on by the innumerable atomic detonations which have punctuated the early modern history of Micras.
A longstanding beneficiary of the patronage of the High Commissioner of Chryse, Albrecht Dalle had worked tirelessly to perfect his craft whilst receiving a stable diffusion of largesse from the Benacian Academy. His artistic career would however be complicated in midjourney, as it were, after he was appointed to the post of Rector of the Chrysean Academy of Fine Arts in 1724 AN.
