Gabriel Cornelius Ritler von Max (August 23, 1840 – November 24, 1915) was a Prague-born Austrian painter. His first large canvas was painted in 1858 while he was a student at the Prague Academy. Gabriel von Max was a significant artist to emerge from the Piloty School, because he abandoned the themes of the Grunderzeitliche (genre and history), in order to develop an allegorical-mystical pictorial language, which became typical of Secessionist Art.
