Early life

Adolf Henning was born on 28 February 1809 in Berlin as the son of the court conductor Carl Wilhelm Henning (1784–1867[2]). From 1823 he studied at the Berlin academy of arts under Wilhelm Wach and others. In 1833, he studied at the academy of arts in Düsseldorf in the first class under Wilhelm von Schadow as a history and portrait painter[3]

Stay in Rome

Together with the painter Heinrich Mücke, Henning travelled to Italy from 1833 to 1835. During his time in Rome, he twice portrayed the famous model Fortunata Segatori. The oil painting in question[4] is now in the Thorvaldsen Museum in Copenhagen, the second portrait, a drawing, in a private collection in Germany.

In 1839, he became a member and professor at the Berlin academy.[5] Henning had been married to Marie Jordan (born 1816 in Berlin, died 1899 also in Berlin) since 1836. His brother-in-law, also his friend, was the painter Rudolf Jordan.
