Artist Biography
Franz Seraph von Lenbach (1836-1904) was a German painter, active mainly in Munich but also across Europe. He painted various subjects, but is remembered as the most successful German portrait artist of his day. His use of the Venetian Method combined with his solid characterisation appealed greatly to German high society. He had a friendship with Otto Von Bismarck, whom he first met in 1878. He would go on to complete around a hundred portraits of Bismarck in his lifetime.
