Johann Rudolf Huber the Elder was a Swiss painter and printmaker, as well as a statesman.
Huber studied painting with Basel and German masters, and in 1685 went to Venice, where he painted portraits. A few years later Huber entered the Academy of St. Luke in Rome, where he became a pupil of the famous Carlo Maratta. In 1693 the artist returned to Basel, where he was elected to the Grand Council of Basel and began to receive many prestigious commissions from the nobility; he was court painter to the Duke of Württemberg in Stutart. A very prolific painter, Huber painted many portraits of royalty during his lifetime.
