Ludwig Hartmann was a German animal painter.
Hartmann studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and was a member of the prestigious Munich School of Artists, which flourished during his lifetime, he was awarded medals in Vienna in 1869 and 1872.
The artist's greatest success came from his works with horses, painted in bold colors. But Hartmann specialized in depicting simple, working horses, most often at rest. In his soulful paintings, horses tired after hard work enjoy peace - in the stables or at a watering hole.
Frédéric Théodore Faber was a Belgian landscape and genre painter. He established at Brussels a china manufactory, and abandoned painting on canvas for painting on porcelain. He also etched upwards of a hundred plates of landscapes and animals, some after his own designs.
A significant set of pieces painted by this virtuoso is exhibited at the Museum of Decorative Arts François Duesberg.
