Friedrich von Keller (painter)

Friedrich von Keller (18 February 1840, Ludwigsburg - 26 August 1914, Abtsgmünd) was a German genre painter.

He was the youngest of ten children born to Johann Jakob Keller, a vintner, who died when Friedrich was only nine.

He continued to improve his technique by working with Wilhelm von Lindenschmit at the Academy of Fine Arts.

He was appointed a professor of genre painting at the Royal Art School in 1883, succeeding Carl von Häberlin, who had resigned.

His notable students there included Paula von Wächter, Bernhard Buttersack, Maria Caspar-Filser, Adolf Fleischmann, Oskar Schlemmer, and Rudolf Yelin.
