Biography

Born at Egg, near Bregenz, in 1810, and studied historical painting under Cornelius. In 1836 he went to St. Petersburg, and there painted many portraits and altarpieces. He afterwards returned to Munich, and in 1860 went to Rome, where he died in 1866.

He executed his best works whilst in the Italian city, mostly of religious character. A Madonna and Child, with St. John and an Infant Christ are in the Pinakothek at Munich.

gollark: It uses unreasonable amounts of client side JS and may actually leak memory while old reddit uses mostly HTML, I have uBO anyway, infinite scrolling means you lose your place if the tab is suspended or whatever and can also trap you in an inescapable reddit cycle, and even "compact" view seems to be wasting space on the sides.

gollark: It's bloated and slow, it has more camouflaged ads, it does infinite scroll, and it's much less information dense.
