Anton Raphael Mengs was an 18th century German painter. He studied under his father in Dresden and Rome, and was influenced early on by the works of the Italian Renaissance painters. Some art historians have said that Mengs was considered to be the greatest living painter of his day.

During the height of Mengs’ popularity, he was still highly influence by the Baroque in his religious paintings. However, Mengs was also working at the same time to bring Neoclassical elements into his art and the art world.
