Georg Conrad Adolph Brokesch (24 November 1849 – 29 January 1896) was a 19th-century German photographer.

Life

Brokesch was born in Hanover.[1][2] Little is known about his life.

The name Brokesch first appears in the Leipzig address book of 1871. The address given was identical with that of the studio of the photographer Wilhelm Höffert. From 1872 to 1875, Brokesch is identified as "managing director of the photographic studio W. Höffert". When Höffert moved his premises to the Polich department stores' in 1876, Brokesch moved into his own studio on the ground floor at Zeitzer Straße 19c. In 1881, the address was then Zeitzer Straße 48, the numbering of which was changed to Zeitzer Straße 2 in 1885.

From 1892, the photographer Karl Friedrich Wunder[3] from Hanover indicated the address of Georg Brokesch's studio. In the same year, the studio is registered for the first time in the "Handel" department.[4] From 1905 onwards the note: "Karl Wunder (Hannover) Inhaber" is found. At present, nothing is known about the form of the cooperation. From 1914, Wilhelm Weiß indicates Georg Brokesch as the owner of the studio.

The photographer Paul Spalke (1858–1915) was temporarily, before 1 October 1896, managing director of the photographic studio.[5]

Brokesch portrayed numerous musicians, including Edvard Grieg,[6] Adolph Brodsky, Adolf Ruthardt[7][8]

From 1885 onwards, for a few years, an A.[nton] Brokesch can be found in the address book, who lived in Leipzig in Körnerstraße and gave photographer as his profession.[9]

Brokesch died in Heidelberg at the age of 47.
