| Abstract | Wilhelm Wehle was born in Jonsdorf by Zittau in Saxony, emigrated from Dresden in 1866 through New York to attend Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, and moved with his wife and children to Milwaukee in 1879 where he lived the rest of his life. He was known during his lifetime as a talented artist of biblical and religious scenes including portraits and altar pieces, and lithograph copies of his works were found in homes and churches across the country. |
