Eugen Napoleon Neureuther
Eugen Napoleon Neureuther (13 January 1806 – 23 March 1882) was a German painter, etcher, and illustrator.
Born in
In 1830 Neureuther visited Paris, where his illustrations of the scenes of the July revolution appeared under the title Souvenir du 27, 28, 29 juillet (1831). After his return he published Marginal Drawings to Bavarian Poets (1832–35), and in 1838 completed his illustrations to Herder's Cid. His best etching is perhaps the large plate of Dornröschen (1839). As a painter, he may be judged by The Pastor's Daughter of Taubenhain, in the Pinakothek, Munich, and six canvases in the Schack Gallery at Munich. All his work is distinguished by great decorative charm and by purity and nobility of line. He is buried in the Alter Südfriedhof in Munich.
