Hubert Sattler | Landscape painter

Hubert Sattler (21 January 1817 - 3 April 1904) worked under pseudonyms Louis Ritchard, E Grossen and Stähly-Rychen, was an Austrian landscape painter.
Hubert Sattler was born in Salzburg. His father, Johann Michael Sattler, was also a landscape painter and created the Sattler Panorama of Salzburg in 1825-29.

Guillermo Gómez Gil | Seascape painter

Guillermo Gómez Gil [1862-1942] was born in Malaga in 1862. He showed an interest in art from a very early age and began training as an artist in 1878 as a pupil of the San Telmo School of Fine Arts in Malaga. He must have made good progress as he ventured to compete for the Barroso prize awarded by the council as an incentive to students of the school, although he did not win. He tried again in 1881 and was equally unsuccessful.
In 1880 he took part in his first group show, the Art, Industrial and Agricultural Exhibition organised by Malaga council. The works he entered attest to his preference for seascapes as they were entitled Puesta de sol (“Sunset”) and Marina (“Seascape”); the former was acquired by the council for 375 pesetas.

Charles Hoffbauer | Cityscape painter

Charles Constantin Joesph Hoffbauer (June 28, 1875 - July 26, 1957) was a French-born artist who became a United States citizen. He painted a wide variety of subjects, including many that depicted scenes of historical interest.

Charles Hoffbauer was born in Paris.

His parents, Féodor Hubert Hoffbauer and Marie Clemence Belloc Hoffbauer, were of Alsatian origin. Féodor Hoffbauer was a well-known archeologist, architect and artist, and likely influenced his son's interest in history.

As a child, Charles sometimes assisted his father in conducting research.

The elder Hoffbauer's 1882 book on Paris architecture, Paris à Travers les Ages, has been updated over the years and remains in print with the latest edition published in 2007.

David Burliuk | The Father of Russian Futurism

David Davidovich Burlyuk, Burlyuk also spelled Burliuk /Дави́д Дави́дович Бурлю́к (1882-1967), Russian poet, painter, critic, and publisher who became the centre of the Russian Futurist movement, even though his output in the fields of poetry and painting was smaller than that of his peers. Burlyuk excelled at discovering talent and was one of the first to publish the poetry of Velimir Khlebnikov and to recognize Vladimir Mayakovsky’s brilliance.

It was largely because of Burlyuk’s efforts that the Russian avant-garde became known in Europe and the United States.
