Douzette, who particularly enjoyed painting moonlit and evening landscapes, moved to Berlin in 1855, where he became a student of the renowned marine and landscape painter Hermann Eschke. Beginning in 1860, he traveled regularly to the Baltic Sea coast, to Rügen and the Darß Peninsula, to sketch and paint there.
