From 1888-1889 Kallmorgen had a simple house built in Grötzingen, where from now on - as on the numerous study trips - he made landscape and figure studies that served as the basis for his painting compositions in the studio. In addition to the large paintings, composed down to the last detail, there have also been small-format landscape sections painted en plein air since the end of the 1880s, which with clear brushstrokes depict the idyllic local idyll as the seasons change. During this time the Grötzingen painters' colony was founded, the most important representatives of which were Kallmorgen and Gustav Kampmann. In 1896 he was one of the initiators of the Karlsruher Künstlerbund, which he headed until 1898. Even though he had preferred to focus on Hamburg harbor life since 1899 (from Hamburg, 1916, Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe), taught as a professor at the Berlin Academy from 1902-1918 and then settled in Heidelberg, he stayed regularly in Grötzingen until his death. Kallmorgenstrasse was named after him while he was still alive. The grave of the Kallmorgen couple has been preserved in the Grötzingen cemetery.

STADTLEXIKON KARLSRUHE:
Friedrich Kallmorgen
Painter, graphic artist, born November 15, 1856 in Hamburg-Altona, † June 2, 1924 Grötzingen, ev., ∞ 1882 Margarethe Hormuth-Eber, 1 son, 1 daughter.
Parallel to the secondary school, the son of a building contractor received his first lessons in the arts and crafts school in Altona from around 1870. After graduating from high school, Kallmorgen studied genre, portrait and history painting with Ernst Hildebrand and landscape painting with Hans Frederik Gude from 1875-1877 at the Düsseldorf Art Academy, from 1877-1879 at the Karlsruhe Art School. In the 1880s, he processed the knowledge he had acquired in the figure and landscape subject in a series of narrative compositions that have brought him international awards since 1885. Since 1880 he made many study trips within Europe; He very often visited Holland (ships in the Amsterdam harbor, 1889, Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe) as well as Altona and Hamburg.

Since 1881 he maintained close contact with Gustav Schönleber, since 1882 with Hermann Baisch and since 1888 with Wilhelm Ritter, some of whom accompanied him to Holland and Paris. From 1886-1887 he was an assistant teacher in Schönleber's still life class. In 1887 he was commissioned by the Gemäldegalerie Karlsruhe to paint the “Rhine flood near Karlsruhe in 1887” (1888, Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe). Ferdinand Keller was able to prevent an appointment as full professor at the Karlsruhe Art School. In 1891 he was only awarded the title of professor.
