About Carl Rudolf Huber

  • Biography

    Carl Rudolf Huber entered the Vienna Academy at the tender age of eleven years, remaining until 1857 before he continued his education at the Düsseldorf Academy. Huber loved horses and therefore it is unsurprising that he dedicated himself to painting horses, and later hunting and animal painting, becoming one of the most popular and highest paid painters of this subject. He was a professor and head of the special school for animal painting at the Vienna Academy from 1880 to 1896.
