Bruno Héroux
Louis Carl Bruno Héroux (20 December 1868 – 14 February 1944) was a German painter, graphic and typography and Bookplate, exlibris artist. Life Héroux came from a Huguenot family on his father's side family. He was born in Leipzig as the son of the engraver Louis Héroux and his wife Minna, ''née'' Zimmermann. He received his artistic training from 1886 to 1892 at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig, where he devoted himself in particular to the study of xylography.

From 1900, he worked as a freelance graphic artist and was already represented with three works at the International art exhibitions in Dresden the following year. In particular, his etched nude ex libris and the use of the special graphic fo ...

Albert Order
The Albert Order () was created on 31 December 1850 by King Frederick Augustus II of Saxony to commemorate Albert III, Duke of Saxony (known as Albert the Bold). It was to be awarded to anyone who had served the state well, for civil virtue, science and art. Design The design was a Christian cross with a bust of Albert the Bold at the centre.
