August Laux was a painter and designer of French origin who worked in Germany and the United States.
In 1863 he emigrated with his parents from Germany to New York, where he studied sculpture and painting, then enrolled in courses at the National Academy of Design. In the 1870s he was commissioned to paint sets for a private club theater in Manhattan. After a successful result, Laux's work became in demand in wealthy homes and hotels.
In painting, Laux took on different genres: he painted floral and fruity still lifes, genre animalistic scenes, and rural landscapes.
