Ralph Fleck was born in 1951. Ralph is known for his realistic cityscapes in a square format. He focuses on the architectural patterns and greenery of a section of the city, often painting in series.

This particular artwork depicts a bird's-eye view of Paris, with a zoomed-in focus on a street corner and its building complexes. Fleck's use of color and brushstrokes gives the picture a three-dimensional character, but when viewed up close, the details dissolve into blurred, impasto brushstrokes

Ralph Fleck was born in 1951 in Freiburg im Breisgau. From 1973-78 he studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Karlsruhe and graduated as a master student of Peter Dreher. He has won several sponsorship awards and received a scholarship from the Villa Massimo in Rome in 1981.

Since 2003 he is a professor of painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg. Ralph Fleck lives and works in Freiburg, Nuremberg and in his studio in Portugal.
