Hermann Grobe was a German maritime painter.
He studied at the Munich and Düsseldorf Art Academies. His favorite subject for Grobe was the sea and everything connected with it. He painted a lot of pictures with ships on the pier and everyday scenes on the shore, sailors on the shore and fishing boats.
Bernardo Germán de Llórente was a Spanish painter of the late-Baroque period. He was active in Seville where he was one of the followers of Murillo and made a name with his devotional paintings of the Virgin Mary. He also painted portraits and still lifes with trompe-l'œil effects.
Johann Peter Hasenclever was a German painter of the first half of the 19th century. He is known as a painter, a representative of the Düsseldorf school of art, who is considered one of the founders of German genre painting.
Hasenclever began his work by interpreting biblical, mythological and romantic subjects, but eventually found his calling in humorous scenes from bourgeois life, especially Pyrenean towns and cities. Among his famous works are "The Amusing Examination," "The Reading Room," and "The Trial of Wine," distributed in engravings and lithographs.
Carl Spitzweg was a German romanticist painter, especially of genre subjects. He is considered to be one of the most important artists of the Biedermeier era.
Hans Thoma was a German painter.
In spite of his studies under various masters, his art has little in common with modern ideas, and is formed partly by his early impressions of the simple idyllic life of his native district, partly by his sympathy with the early German masters, particularly with Albrecht Altdorfer and Lucas Cranach the Elder. In his love of the details of nature, in his precise drawing of outline, and in his predilection for local coloring, he has distinct affinities with the Pre-Raphaelites.
