The genre painter Carl Wilhelm Hübner trained at the Düsseldorf Academy, and founded his own studio there, where he later achieved his artistic breakthrough with the painting "The Silesian Weavers" in 1844. The depiction of social grievances, suffering communities, and paradigmatic rural scenes replete with wood thieves, poachers, usurers, and emigrants combine to make the social situation in the Vormärz period the subject of his work. Hübner is considered the main representative of the Düsseldorf social genre, which was more or less limited to the years 1844-47, but significantly contributed to the development and acceptance of depictions of poverty in 19th century German genre painting.
Carl Wilhelm Hübner was the father of Julius Hübner (1842-1874), who was also a genre painter.
