Hugo Fredrik Salmson was a Swedish painter known for his figures and genre scenes. After studying business, he pursued an artistic career and received training at the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts.
Salmson gained recognition for his painting of Sten Sture the Younger meeting Gustav Trolle. He traveled to Paris for further artistic development and exhibited at the Salon in 1870. Despite becoming a member of the Royal Academy, he later joined a group opposing its teaching methods. In his later years, Salmson focused on portraits but battled depression and died in 1894.
Jakob Philipp Hackert was a German painter of the second half of the 18th and early 19th centuries. He is known as a landscape painter and printmaker, a representative of neoclassicism and romanticism.
Hackert reached the peak of creative activity in 1770-1780. He was recognized by the European aristocracy, and for a time served as court painter to King Ferdinand IV of Naples, as well as receiving commissions from representatives of the Russian imperial family, such as Empress Catherine II and the heir to the throne, Paul Petrovich. His work, according to critics, was characterized by high craftsmanship and aristocratic elegance.
