Makart was an Austrianacademichistory painter, designer, and decorator. He is most well known for his influence on Gustav Klimt and other artists of the Vienna Secession, but in his own era considered an important artist himself and a celebrity figure in the high culture of Vienna, attended with almost cult-like adulation. The appeal of this ‘Makartstil’ is in its aestheticism, a movement that was also experiencing popularity in EnglandandFrance. Nowadays he is widely considered one of Austria’s finest artists, and has historically been compared to Rubens within his home country.
Olga Wisinger-Florian was an Austrian painter, mainly of landscapesandstill lifes. She was a representative of Stimmungsimpressionismus (Mood Impressionism), a loose Austrian school of Impressionism that was considered avant-garde in the 1870s and 1880s.
