Karl Becker
Karl Becker is a Realism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Walters Art Museum.
Karl Becker painted scenes from everyday life in 19th-century Europe, often set in grand halls or quiet streets. His *The Petition to the Doge* shows a group of people kneeling before a Venetian official, the room’s warm light catching their formal clothes and the Doge’s raised hand.
