Answer 1

Rudolf Julius Benno Hübner (27 January 1806 – 7 November 1882) was a German historical painter of the Düsseldorf school. He was also known as a poet and the father of Emil Hübner, a distinguished classical scholar.

Hübner was born at Oels in Silesia, studied at the Academy School in Berlin and under Schadow there and in Düsseldorf. He first attracted attention by his picture of "Ruth and Boaz" (1825). He traveled in Italy and resided for the most part at Düsseldorf until 1839. In that year he settled at Dresden, becoming a professor in the Academy of Arts in 1841 and director of the Gallery of Paintings in 1871. He obtained the great gold medal at Brussels in 1851. He died in Loschwitz.

Among the works of Hübner's first period are "The Fisherman" (1828), after Goethe's ballad; "Ruth and Naomi" (1833), in the National Gallery, Berlin; "Christ and the Evangelists" (1835); "Job and his Friends" (1838), in the Gallery of Frankfurt; "Consider the Lilies" (1839); and the portrait of Frederick III, in Frankfurt's Römer.

To his second, or Dresden, period belong the "Golden Age" and "Dispute between Luther and Dr. Eck" (1866), in the Dresden Gallery; "Charles V at San Yuste;" "Last Days of Frederick the Great;" "Cupid in Winter;" and others.

As for your second question, Germania was the Latin name for land on the east bank of the Rhine. It was inhabited by different tribes. I guess the main reason for the fall was, in a word, Huns. The region was invaded by the Huns. Many of the Germanic peoples moved inside the borders of the Roman empire when this happened.
