Kaspar Braun - De Tooverlantaren Sneakers
Kaspar Braun ( 1807 – 1877) was a German painter, illustrator, wood engraver, and publisher. Born in Aschaffenburg, he studied painting at the Munich Academy under the direction of Peter von Cornelius. After traveling through Northern Germany and Hungary, Braun worked in Paris with wood engraver Louis-Henri Brévière in 1838. Upon returning to Munich in 1839, he co-founded a xylographic institute with Hofrat Georg von Dessauer. In 1843, Braun partnered with Friedrich Schneider to establish the publishing house Braun & Schneider. Together, they launched the humorous illustrated weekly "Fliegende Blätter" in 1845, which continued publication until 1944. They also published the "Münchener Bilderbogen," featuring works by artists like Wilhelm Busch and Franz Graf von Pocci. Braun's contributions significantly influenced German visual culture in the 19th century.
