Peter Jakob Schober was a prominent German painter associated with Expressive Realism. Despite facing adversity during World War I and II, he remained committed to art and exhibited remarkable resilience. His artistic journey took him from Stuttgart to Paris, where he drew inspiration from Impressionism and Cézanne's techniques. Returning to Germany, he embarked on a successful career as an artist, receiving numerous commissions for art am Bau.
Schober's work expanded beyond Germany through his travels to Spain, France, Italy, and North Africa. His involvement in art organizations, including chairing the Stuttgarter Sezession, solidified his influence. The accolades and recognition he received, such as the Bundesverdienstkreuz and professorship, celebrated his artistic excellence. Peter Jakob Schober's impact on the art world remains enduring and profound.
Nicolaes Pieterszoon Berchem was a highly esteemed and prolific Dutch Golden Age painter of pastoral landscapes, populated with mythological or biblical figures, but also of a number of allegories and genre pieces.
He was a member of the second generation of "Dutch Italianate landscape" painters. These were artists who travelled to Italy, or aspired to, in order to soak up the romanticism of the country, bringing home sketchbooks full of drawings of classical ruins and pastoral imagery. His paintings, of which he produced an immense number, (Hofstede de Groot claimed around 850, although many are misattributed), were in great demand, as were his 80 etchings and 500 drawings. His landscapes, painted in the Italian style of idealized rural scenes, with hills, mountains, cliffs and trees in a golden dawn are sought after. Berchem also painted inspired and attractive human and animal figures (staffage) in works of other artists, like Allaert van Everdingen, Jan Hackaert, Gerrit Dou, Meindert Hobbema and Willem Schellinks.

Robert Breyer was a German modernist painter who worked in various genres.
Georg Arnold-Graboné was a painter of German impressionism and an art teacher.
Arnold-Graboné became well known for his unique style of Palette knife painting. His technique used the texture of thickly applied paint to create an actual three-dimensional representation of a landscape. In Graboné's works, the colors are remarkable for their brilliance, distinguishing his landscapes from those of other pallet-knife painters. The brilliance is a result of Graboné's color-separation technique in knife-painting. His favorite subjects were of the Alps of Bavaria and South Tirole, the Isle of Capri, the English Garden in Munich, the lake region surrounding Starnberg, and fishing boats on the North Sea. His unusual signature is incised into the wet paint with the opposite end of the brush, almost invariably on the bottom left hand of his oil paintings (and on the bottom right for watercolors).
Adalbert Waagen is a German landscape painter. Studied in Munich and Milan. In Munich he founded his studio. In 1869 he moved with his wife to Berchtesgaden and opened a studio with a direct view of Mount Wachsmann. The artist received commissions from all over Europe. His focus was on landscapes, primarily mountains. His work can be seen in the Martin von Wagner Museum, the Julius-Maximilian University of Würzburg and the Munich City Museum.
