Charlotte Piepenhagen-Mohr
Charlotte Piepenhagen-Mohr (variously rendered as Charlotte Piepenhagen, Charlotte Piepenhagen-Weyrother-Mohr, Charlote Weyrother-Mohr-Piepenhagen, and Charlotte Weyrother-Mohr Piepenhagen) (1821–1902) was a Czech painter, primarily of landscapes. She was the daughter of August Piepenhagen, with whom she studied alongside her sister Louise. Some of her work is in the collections of the National Gallery in Prague. Piepenhagen-Mohr was also important as a patron of the arts in Prague, running a private art school for girls and providing in her will for the creation of a foundation for young landscape painters.
