Pietronella Peters (4 March 1848, Stuttgart - 1924, Stuttgart) was a German painter who specialized in portraits and genre scenes of children.
Peters's father was the Dutch-born landscape painter, Pieter Francis Peters, her grandfather was a glass painter in Nijmegen and her uncle, Christian Mali, was a well-known animal painter of the Munich School, who lived with her family. Her sister, Anna Peters, became a still-life painter, specializing in flowers. She received her first lessons from her father and uncle.
In addition to her portraits of children, she painted numerous portraits of her extended family members. Peters contributed illustrations to Isabella Braun's Der Mädchen liebstes Buch (1880) [1] as well as publishing a series of portraits: Girls Album.
