As a specialist in winter landscapes, he explored the nuances of the evening sky and the rosy-fingered dawn. Orphan Leickert first learned painting in The Hague under the supervision of landscape painters Bartholomeus van Hove,[1] Wijnand Nuijen, and Andreas Schelfhout among many others. Leickert specialised in winter scenes, sometimes romanticising the sky in pale blues and bright pinks. He painted almost all his works in the Netherlands, from 1841-1846 in The Hague and from 1849-1883 in Amsterdam. In 1856, he became a member of the Royal Academy of Amsterdam. At the age of 71 he moved to Mainz, Germany, where he later died in 1907. Harry J. Kraaij (2005). Charles Leickert, 1816-1907: Painter Of The Dutch Landscape. Scriptum Signature. ISBN 9055940127.
