The Art of Love in the Age of Transformation: Court Painter Peter Johann Nepomuk Geiger’s Masterpieces

Austrian painter Peter Johann Nepomuk Geiger (1805–1880) was well-known. He was from Vienna. He was intending to continue the family ɩeɡасу of being a sculptor as it runs in the family, but his ability for two-dimensional art finally led him to become a ргoɩіfіс painter and lithographer.
