Edmund Henry Osthaus (1858–1928) was a prominent painter and illustrator, best known for his depictions of dogs, particularly pointers and setters, in the field of sporting art. Born in Hildesheim, Germany, Osthaus studied at the Royal Academy of Arts in Düsseldorf, where he was influenced by the Düsseldorf school of painting, a movement known for its detailed landscapes and emphasis on naturalism. In 1883, he immigrated to the United States, where he would eventually become a central figure in American sporting art.

Upon his arrival in the U.S., Osthaus settled in Toledo, Ohio, and became the director of the Toledo Academy of Fine Arts, a position he held for several years before dedicating himself fully to his art.

His works have been displayed in numerous galleries and are part of the collections of several prestigious museums, attesting to his enduring appeal and significance in the art world.
