Jules Bastien-Lepage

Born: Damvillers Wikipedia: 22/32 languages

Jules Bastien-Lepage

Født i 1848 i den lille landsby Damvillers, beliggende i Frankrigs Meuse-region, var hans kunstneriske bane dybt rodfæstet i landskaberne og livet på det franske land. Hans korte, men intens produktive karriere, tragisk afbrudt ved hans død i 1884 i en alder af kun seksogtredve år, satte et uudsletteligt præg på naturalismens udvikling og influerede kunstnere over hele Europa.

Christian Krohg

Norsk Born: Vestre Aker Naturalisme, Realisme Wikipedia: 23/32 languages

Christian Krohg

Hans tidlige studier i jura ved Universitetet i Oslo fra 1869 til 1873 blev aldrig fuldført, da hans hjerte længtes efter pensel og farve. Krohgs kunstneriske uddannelse begyndte formelt i Tyskland, hvor han studerede på Baden Kunstakademi i Karlsruhe under Hans Gude fra 1874 til 1875. Men det var i Paris, fra 1881 til 1882, at Krohg virkelig fandt sin stemme som kunstner.

William Henry Hunt

Born: Cheapside

William Henry Hunt

I den britiske akvarels guldalder besad få hænder den delikate præcision og sjælfulde iagttagelsesevne, som William Henry Hunt besad. Hunt blev født i det pulserende hjerte af Cheapside, London, og trådte frem som en central skikkelse i den victorianske æra – en periode, hvor naturens intimitet ofte blev indfanget gennem en linse af dyb spirituel og æstetisk følsomhed.

Pietro Cavallini

Italiensk Born: Rom Romersk naturalisme

Pietro Cavallini

Han blev født omkring 1240 i Rom, og hans liv forbliver indhyllet i en vis relativ uklarhed—historiske optegnelser viser, at han underskrev sit værk som pictor romanus, hvilket antyder en dyb forbindelse til basilikaen San Paolo fuori le Mura, hvor han påbegyndte sin lysende karriere.
