Von Wagner in 1880

Alexander originally Sándor von[1] Wagner (April 16, 1838 – January 19, 1919) was a Hungarian painter.

  1. ^ In German personal names, von is a preposition which approximately means 'of' or 'from' and usually denotes some sort of nobility. While von (always lower case) is part of the family name or territorial designation, not a first or middle name, if the noble is referred to by their last name, use Schiller, Clausewitz or Goethe, not von Schiller, etc.
