Storming of the Château de Lichtenberg

Karl Albert von Schott (13 May 1840 in Bad Wimpfen – 21 February 1911 in Stuttgart) was a 19th-century Württembergian officer and painter.[1]

Karl Albert von Schott served in rank of lieutenant colonel in the Württemberg army.

After the end of his military service he was in Munich since 1888 a private student of Anton Braith. He was not entered in the register book of the Munich Art Academy.

As a painter he remained loyal to his original profession and painted mostly densely populated battlefield images. He is known primarily for his dramatic paintings of the Franco-Prussian War.
