Land- scape and figure painter, brother of pre- ceding, pupil of Vienna Academy under Steinfeld and Thomas Ender, and much in- fluenced by Fuhrich ; went in 1855 to Pal- estine, then studied for a year and a half in Italy, and settled at Innsbruck in 1859. Many of his works are in private collections there, and several are in possession of the Im- perial family. Keen observation of nature and strong contrast of colouring are the main features of his pictures, and he is equally happy in the representation of the sunny south and the grandeur of his native glaciers.

A convoy of German prisoners, on foot, pass- ing a French general and his escort, mount- ed, on the highway ; the latter salute the captives with military politeness, the offi- cers by raising their caps, the cuirassiers by the ordinary gesture. Painted in 1875 by commission from Mr. Samuel Hawk from a sketch submitted by the artist. This sketch, also in Hawk Collection, represents French prisoners escorted by helmeted Ger- mans, but the artist finally changed the re- spective uniforms out of regard to the feel- ings of his friends, who objected to sending to America a painting of French prisoners. At Detaille's request, the picture was re- turned to France for exhibition in the Sa- lon of 1877 ; but the objection was again raised that it would be ridiculous to exhibit in public a scene representing German pris- oners, so the artist redressed the captives 448
