Pietronella Peters

Pietronella Peters (1848-1924) was a German painter who specialized in portraits and genre scenes of children.

She was born to Pieter Francis Peters, a Dutch landscape painter, and his wife, Heinrike Gertrude née Mali.

She received her first lessons from her father and uncles, Christian and Johannes Cornelis [de].

Peters contributed illustrations to Isabella Braun's Der Mädchen liebstes Buch (1880)[1] as well as publishing a series of portraits: Girls Album.

A large collection of her works may be found at the Braith-Mali-Museum in Biberach an der Riß and at Schloss Köngen.
