Joseph Wenglein was a German painter who is often referred to as one of the last significant landscape painters of the 19th century Munich school.
Parallel to his law studies Joseph Wenglein studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. He then switched entirely to art and became a pupil of the landscape painter Johann Gottfried Steffan. On his recommendation, Wenglein sometime later became a pupil of the painter Adolf Heinrich Lier, whose colouristic tendencies, calculated to express profound moods, particularly appealed to him.
Josef Wenglein knew how to reproduce the change of daylight, especially in spring and autumn, with a fine sense of the slightest atmospheric fluctuations and to vary the grey pleasant tone of the Bavarian plateau in all its nuances masterfully.
Alexander Max Koester was a German painter. He depicted coastal landscapes and still lifes with flowers. After the artist first presented one of his landscapes with a family of ducks in Berlin in 1899, he earned the nickname "Duck Koester." The "duck" paintings were extremely popular with art lovers.

Bernardino Luini, born in Runo, Lombardy around 1481, remains a significant figure in the 16th-century Lombard school of painting. A key member of the Milanese second Leonardo movement, he, along with Cesare da Sesto and Giampietrino Francesco Melzi, contributed to the essence of this artistic era. Luini's journey into art was accompanied by his marriage to Margherita Lomazzo in 1510. Among their four sons, Giovan Pietro and Aurelio followed their father's footsteps, becoming painters themselves. Influenced profoundly by Raphael's work, Melozzo da Forlì, and Leonardo da Vinci, Luini skillfully blended Leonardo's techniques with his own innovations. His Salome with the Beheading of John the Baptist (Uffizi) draws inspiration from Leonardo's La Scapigliata, while his Holy Family with the Infant John (Prado) echoes Leonardo's lost original sketch of affectionate children.
Luini's artistic journey began with the disputed but noteworthy Madonna with the Child and Two Saints (1507), now exhibited in Paris's Musée Jacquemart-André. One of his remarkable works, Madonna della Buonanotte, can be found in the Chiaravalle Milanese monastery. This painting held a unique purpose – after evening prayers, passing monks would be greeted by the artwork, offering them a peaceful night's rest. In later years, Luini's focus shifted to fresco painting. Notably, his captivating depictions of the Crucifixion in Lugano's Santa Maria degli Angioli church and the small-scale Crucifixion in San Nazario in Dino, a subdivision of Sonvico, are celebrated masterpieces that showcase his skill.
Bernardino Luini's legacy endures as a testament to his mastery of Lombard Renaissance art. His fusion of Leonardo's influence with his own creative brilliance left an indelible mark on the artistic landscape of the 16th century, making him an integral part of the Milanese second Leonardo movement.
