Alphonse Victor Baumann
French, 1826 -1909Alphonse was an artist, widely known and a good friend to the famous Alsacian artist Henner, who had opened a museum in Paris. He was fond of painting horses in a realistic style, close to the artist Rosa Bonheur. He was quite well known and some of his paintings still hang in the Belfort museum which he founded. His son Victor also studied art work but joined the military rather than follow his father's career as an artist.
