Leopold Rottmann was a German painter of the mid-nineteenth century. He is known as a landscape painter who worked in oil painting and watercolor.
Leopold Rottmann was a proponent of naturalistic and heroic-historical painting. He was the drawing teacher of the future King Ludwig II of Bavaria. Later commissioned by Ludwig, who was inspired by Richard Wagner, Rottmann created the artwork for the production of the composer's opera Lohengrin in 1861.
Beate Kuhn is a German ceramic sculptor.
She had an unprecedented influence on the development of German ceramics after the war, when in the mid-1960s she abandoned utilitarian ceramics in favor of free art.
After graduating from the Werkkunstschule in Wiesbaden, she founded her own workshop in Düdelsheim in 1957, developing a style that was already unmistakably her own. Here Beate Kuhn's sculptures were created from individual hand-carved and chiseled elements, which she assembled into a coherent whole. She transferred this stylistic principle of stringing geometric bodies to her designs of large-scale ceramic fountains. The artist's characteristic work can be found in every outstanding collection. The enormous number of prizes awarded to her underscores the recognition and appreciation she has enjoyed.
