August von Pettenkofen

August von Pettenkofen, born August Xaver Carl von Pettenkofen, was an Austrian painter, illustrator and caricaturist.

He studied painting at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts and painted genre works in the Biedermeier style. During the revolution of 1848 Pettenkofen became a war artist and for a long time created watercolors and lithographs depicting Austrian military uniforms. And later in Paris he was drawn to the Barbizon school. The artist's paintings from that period are filled with sincerity and empathy towards the peasants depicted.
