Paul Mathias Padua was a German painter. He felt committed to the tradition of Wilhelm Leibl, a realist who was highly esteemed by Adolf Hitler, and was extremely successful as an artist during the National Socialist era.
Oswald Achenbach was a German painter associated with the Düsseldorf school of painting. Though little known today, during his lifetime he was counted among the most important landscape painters of Europe. Through his teaching activities, he influenced the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. His brother, Andreas Achenbach, who was twelve years older, was also among the most important German landscape painters of the 19th century. The two brothers were humorously called "the A and O of Landscapes" (a reference to their initials matching a common German reference to the Alpha and Omega).
