Rudolf Grossmann (German: Rudolf Grossmann, or Großmann), full name Rudolf Wilhelm Walther Grossmann, was a German painter, draftsman, illustrator and graphic artist.
Born into an artistic family, Grossmann began his education in painting and printmaking at the Düsseldorf Academy before continuing his studies in Paris with Lucien Simon and Pouleroz. Among his best-known works are various portrait drawings of celebrities, notably those published in the satirical periodical Simplicissimus; he was also known for his book illustrations. Grossmann began publishing his prints in 1905, and many major publishers in Germany and France commissioned his work. He later concentrated on figurative works and urban scenes, which showed the influence of Cézanne and Pasquin.
From 1928 until Hitler's Nazi Party came to power, Grossmann taught at the Berlin Royal School of Art and was a member of the Berlin Secession and the Deutsche Kunstlerbund. In 1934, his work, like that of many of his colleagues, was stigmatized as degenerate and confiscated by the Nazi government, and he was disbarred from practicing his profession. He soon left for Freiberg im Beisgau, where he died on November 28, 1941.

Leopold Rottmann was a proponent of naturalistic and heroic-historical painting. He was the drawing teacher of the future King Ludwig II of Bavaria.

Aristide Maillol was a French artist. He was a painter, sculptor, and printmaker, and is best known for his sculptural works.
Maillol initially worked as a painter, but after seeing Auguste Rodin's sculptures in the early 1890s, he turned to sculpture himself. His early sculptures were influenced by the classical tradition, and often depicted female figures in a simplified, stylized form.
Maillol's sculptures are characterized by their smooth surfaces and simplified forms, which reflect his interest in the pure and timeless beauty of the human body. He often worked in bronze, and his sculptures were typically larger than life size.
In addition to his sculptures, Maillol also created prints, including lithographs and woodcuts. His prints were often based on his sculptural works, and reflected his interest in simplifying form and line.
Maillol continued to work and exhibit his art throughout his life, and his work was shown in galleries and museums around the world. Today, his sculptures are held in the collections of many prestigious institutions, including the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Tate Gallery in London.
