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.
Salvator Rosa was a seventeenth-century Italian Baroque painter. He is also known as an engraver, poet and actor.
Salvator Rosa left a very diverse artistic heritage. He was interested in historical, religious, mythological and fantastic subjects, he painted landscapes, battle scenes, portraits, still lifes. Having joined the naturalists of the Neapolitan school of painting, Rosa, however, showed originality in his treatment of subjects. For example, in his paintings on historical themes he combined realistic images with fantastical composition.
The biography of Rosa himself, full of adventures, subsequently became the subject of legends, books, paintings and musical works.
Works of Salvator Rosa today are represented in many museums and private collections in Europe and Russia.
