Johann Leonhard Raab

Johann Leonhard Raab was a German printmaker and painter. After receiving his basic education in the Nuremberg public schools, he attended the Academy of Fine Arts there. Although he began as a painter, he was soon attracted to engraving and began formal studies with Samuel Amsler. At first, he concentrated on small plates for book publishers but, even then, his mature pictorial style became apparent. Eventually, in 1866, on recommendation by Julius Thaeter he was appointed to succeed the latter as Professor of Engraving at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich. He retired in 1895 and, with three of his friends, opened a painting studio. Raab's works can be found in several museums, including the Alte Pinakothek in Munich.
