Heinrich Lang
Painter and Illustrator
Born April 24, 1838 in Regensburg, in Bavaria. Lang (1838-1891) was a painter and illustrator whose work on horses and circus scenes is well known to, and much appreciated by, circus enthusiasts and collectors. Lang learned his craft at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Munich (Königliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste), which was at the time the German States’ leading art school. He then went on to study horses in veterinary schools, and in the stud farms of the Princes of Thurn und Taxis: Equestrian paintings would become his specialty.

His circus sketches were drawn from life and they constitute a very good visual documentation on the German circus of the 19th century. They were published in France and Germany. (Bron: Circopedia)
