Henrika Šantel, self-portrait

Henrika Šantel (17 August 1874, Gorizia — 15 February 1940, Ljubljana) was a Slovenian realist painter.[1]

Šantel was born in Gorizia (Northwest-Italy), then part of the Austria-Hungary. Her mother, Avgusta Šantel, was a painter,[2] and provided initial education for Henrika at home. Her sister, Avgusta Šantel Jr., was a painter as well.[2] In 1891, Henrika moved to Munich to study at the women art academy (Damenacademie) with Friedrich Fehr and Ludwig Schmid-Reutte. She subsequently returned to Gorizia and taught art. After World War I, Gorizia was transferred to Italy, and Šantel with the whole family moved to Maribor, which was in Yugoslavia. In 1929, she moved to Ljubljana, where she stayed until her death.[1]
