Who was a German artist who painted realistic portraits?
Although many artists may fit this description, a famous German artist who painted realistic portraits is Wilhelm Leibl. As a printmaker and painter, Leibl worked during the second half of the 19th century and created many paintings of German peasants in traditional dress. Some of his most notable works include Three Women in Church, Die Dorfpolitiker, Farm Girl with a White Head Scarf and Die junge Pariserin (Die Kokotte).
