Hans Zatzka (8 March 1859 – 17 December 1945^[1] or 1949^[2]) was an Austrian Academic and fantasy^[3] painter. He has sometimes been known as P. Ronsard,^[2] Pierre de Ronsard,^[1] or H. Zabateri,^[3][4] and signed many of his works as Joseph Bernard, J. Bernard, or Bernard Zatzka.^[5] The purpose of Zatzka's vast array of pseudonyms was to avoid penalties of breaking contracts which limited the amount of artwork he could sell.^[1][5] This has caused some art databases to conflate Zatzka's work under the pseudonym Joseph Bernard with the French sculptor with the same name.^[5]
