Joseph Kaspar Sattler (20 July 1867, Schrobenhausen - 12 May 1931, Munich) was a German painter, bookplate artist and Art Nouveau illustrator.
[1] After an apprenticeship as a painter and gilder in Landshut, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich and became a free-lance artist.
An old friendship with Léon Hornecker led him to the École des Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg in 1891, where he was briefly retained as a drawing instructor.
Three years later, he designed the "Nibelungenschrift" (a type font).,[3] which was used for his monumental work "Die Nibelungen", displayed at the Exposition Universelle (1900).
[2] In addition to Pan (one of his posters was published in Les Maîtres de l'Affiche), many of his illustrations appeared in Simplicissimus.
