Clara Oenicke was born on 29 July 1818 in Berlin and baptized on 16 August 1818 in St. Nicholas Church, Berlin.[1] She was the daughter of Johanna Caroline, née Spaenhauer, and Gustav Adolph Oenicke, and had two older siblings, sister Wilhelmine Amalie Oenicke (*1804) and brother Louis Theodor Oenicke (1814–1815), who died early.
Oenicke was a student of Marie Remy in 1837, then employed by Carl Joseph Begas and later in the studio of Eduard Magnus.[2] From 1840 she worked independently, and in 1848 she also offered drawing and painting lessons for women in her apartment at Bernburger Straße 18.[3] In 1867, together with Marie Remy, Rosa Petzel, and Clara Heinke, she founded the Verein der Berliner Künstlerinnen. In 1870 she was listed in the Berlin address book as a portrait and history painter and lived at Dessauer Strasse 7 pt.
Clara Oenicke died on 9 August 1899 after a long and difficult illness.[4] Her last apartment was at Kurfürstenstraße 163.
