Anton Gareis was a German painter, lithographer, and engraver. Born in Klosterfreiheit, Germany, he received his artistic training at the Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden and in Berlin, later studying in Neustadt/Oberschlesien from 1818. His professional journey included working for the publisher J. D. Gruson in Breslau, where he produced lithographs based on the works of the Galerie von Maria Magdalena and Raphael's Sistine Madonna, as well as mythological subjects of his own invention.
