Max (surname)

Max is the surname of:

The Max family of artists

NB: two members of this family were knighted (Ritter is German for "knight"), both by Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria: Emanuel Max in 1876 as Ritter von Wachstein and Gabriel Max in 1900 as Ritter von Max, hence their more complicated surnames.

  • Emanuel Max von Wachstein (1810–1901), German-Czech sculptor, brother of Josef, and uncle of Gabriel
  • Gabriel von Max (1840–1915), Austrian painter, son of Josef, and nephew of Emanuel
  • Josef Max (1804–1855), German-Czech sculptor, brother of Emanuel, and father of Gabriel
