Life
Köhler became acquainted with the painter Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow as the stableboy of the writer Heinrich Clauren. He followed him—as had Eduard Bendemann, Heinrich Mücke, and Karl Ferdinand Sohn—from Berlin to Düsseldorf and became part of his closest circle of students. In late 1827 he enrolled in the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf arts academy; he joined the master class there in 1837–38. In 1837 he took part in an exhibition of Düsseldorf artists at the Palais Brühl in Dresden, at which the term "Düsseldorf school" arose.
