Salomon Corrodi was an Italian-Swiss watercolor painter.
At the age of twenty-two, Corrodi moved from Zurich to Italy, his parents' homeland, and took up the study of watercolor landscape painting in Rome with Jacob Suter (1805-1874). He traveled and painted landscapes extensively, and by the mid-19th century had become a recognized master of watercolor landscape painting as well as a teacher.
Salomon Corrodi lived a long and productive life, laboring until his death and producing many exquisite landscapes of coastal and mountain vistas as well as vedutas. Two of his sons, Herman and Arnold, also became artists.

John Wesley was an American painter, known for idiosyncratic figurative works of eros and humor, rendered in a precise, hard-edged, deadpan style. Wesley's art largely remained true to artistic premises that he established in the 1960s: a comic-strip style of flat shapes, delicate black outline, a limited matte palette of saturated colors, and elegant, pared-down compositions. His characteristic subjects included cavorting nymphs, nudes, infants and animals, pastoral and historical scenes, and 1950s comic strip characters in humorously blasphemous, ambiguous scenarios of forbidden desire, rage or despair.
