Parlem de Pintura...
Jules-Alexandre Grün (Paris, 25 de maig de 1868 - Paris, 15 de febrer de 1938) va ser un pintor francès. Es va formar amb Jean-Baptiste Lavastre i amb Antoine Guillemet. Amb ells i inicialment es va especialitzar en pintura de gènere, natures mortes i retrats. A partir del 1890 va treballar com a il·lustrador de temàtica satírica per a revistes i diaris. També va realitzar nombrosos cartells, tant per a particulars com per a empreses. A partir del 1898 va entrar com a membre de la Societat Artística i Literària Cornet. El 1909 va realitzar la que seria la seva obra més coneguda per encàrrec del govern francès en què va pintar el 30è aniversari del Saló d'Artistes Francesos i en la qual s'hi poden reconèixer, entre moltes altres, personalitats com Henri Harpignies, Fernand Cormon, Léon Bonnat i Gabriel Fauré. A partir de la dècada del 1920 va viatjar a la Argentina on va realitzar algunes exposicions. Jules-Alexandre Grün va morir a París el febrer de 1938.

Parlem de Música...
Ján Levoslav Bella (Liptovský Mikuláš, 4 de setembre de 1843 - Bratislava, 25 de maig de 1936) va ser un director i compositor eslovac. A l'entorn del 1855 es va iniciar en l'estudi de piano, orgue, instruments de corda, de vent, direcció i composició. A partir del 1859 va viure a Banská Bystrica, on va estudiar teologia i on va començar la seva carrera músical. El 1863 es va traslladar a Viena, on va seguir la seva formació en teologia a la universitat i on va estudiar música amb Simon Sechter i amb Gottfried Preyer. Allà també va entrar al cor del Páƶemáneum Collegium, vinculat al moviment cecilià. El 1865 va tornar novament a Banská Bystrica, on va ser ordenat sacerdot el 1866 i on va dedicar-se a la docència, tant de cant com de teoria musical. El 1869 va ser nomenat director musical de la ciutat de Kremnica. Des d'allà va viatjar sovint a Bohèmia i Alemanya fent amistat amb Smetana i Dvořák. El 1881 va assolir un càrrec de professor a Hermannstadt, ciutat on també es va casar i on es va convertir en mestre del cor d'una església protestant en un càrrec que va preservar fins el 1921. El 1928 es va jubilar i es va establir a Viena si bé va viatjar sovint a Bratislava, ciutat on va morir el maig de 1936.
