Born in Germany, Herman-Maurice Cossmann studied painting and etching at the studio of Eugene Lepoitevin. He began exhibiting his art at the Salon de Paris in 1845. Herman-Maurice Cossmann moved permanently to that city and became a French citizen several years later.

Most of Cossmann's art is in the medium of etching, where he excelled in figure studies, landscapes, portraits, historical and military scenes. Apres la Bataille (After the Battle). His original etchings are now found in many French collections, including the Musee de Bagneres-de-Bigorre. The National Gallery of Canada (Musee des Beaux-Arts du Canada) includes an impression of this original etching in its permanent collection. More on Herman-Maurice Cossmann
