Edward Harrison Compton was a German landscape painter and illustrator of English descent.
Like his father he was inspired by the Alps to become a mountain painter (Bergmaler) working in both oils and watercolour. However, an attack of Polio at the age of 28 meant that he had to find more accessible landscapes to paint in Germany, England, northern Italy and Sicily. He also provided illustrations for several travel books published by A & C Black.

Eduard von Grützner was a German painter of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He went down in the history of European art as a portrait painter and a brilliant master of genre.
Eduard von Grützner in most of his paintings depicted the life of monks, who usually appear to the audience in the images of merry rioters, leading a not ideal lifestyle. The public liked the original humorous style of the painter, and Grützner's work had many admirers.
Grützner was awarded the Royal Order of St. Michael and also received the title of honorary professor at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts. He also became a Knight of the Order of Civil Merit of the Bavarian Crown and received the title of nobleman, with the prefix "von" added to his last name.
Von Grützner is also known as a collector of art and antiques. For many years he collected masterpieces of the Gothic and Renaissance masters, and towards the end of his life he became interested in Far Eastern art.
