Wilhelm von Kobell was a German painter of the first half of the 19th century. He is known as a landscape painter, animalist and battle painter.
Von Kobell initially produced landscapes and animal paintings, but later focused mainly on battle painting. He visited Vienna and Paris between 1809 and 1810 to study this genre. His battle paintings, based on extensive research, are characterized by striking realism. They are important for the study of military history.
