The German painter Eduard Bendemann (1811 - 1889) is an important representative of the Düsseldorf school of painting. He was appointed professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden, and was commissioned to paint murals in three rooms of the Royal Palace: biblical scenes, scenes of apprenticeship, weapons, forging, mining, architecture, war, perfectly reproduced by the engraver Hugo Burkner (1818 - 1897), professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden, and friend of the painter. He made an important contribution to the development of woodcutting in Germany.
