Johann Peter Krafft

Johann Peter Krafft was a German and Austrian painter of the mid-nineteenth century. He is known as a painter and graphic artist who specialized in genre, battle, portraiture and history painting. Krafft is believed to have had a significant influence on Austrian painting and was a leading portraitist of the Neoclassical style in Vienna. He later influenced the development of genre painting during the Viennese Biedermeier period.

Krafft co-founded the Vienna Artists' Union and was elected to the council of the Vienna Academy of Art in 1835. The artist also acted as a consultant for the protection of cultural monuments at Karlstein Castle in Bohemia.
