Life

After training at the grammar school in Buchsweiler, which he left at the age of fourteen with the certificate “complete maturity for university”, he studied with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in Strasbourg under Johann Schweighäuser , Johann Daniel Schöpflin , Jeremias Jakob Oberlin and Christoph Wilhelm von Koch theology and law. At the age of nineteen he took on a position as a tutor in the von Stein family's house for the younger brother of the future Prussian State Minister . Here he met his future sponsor, the Prussian minister Friedrich Anton von Heynitz . This brought him to Berlin in 1777 and gave him a position as assessor in the mine and smelter administration. After being promoted to Berg- in 1781 and to Ober-Bergrat in 1786, which in 1787 involved membership of the newly established Royal Porcelain Manufactory Commission, he became a full member of the Academy of Arts in 1790 . In 1802 he was given the management of the porcelain factory, in 1804 he was appointed to the secret chief finance councilor and war and domain council of the mining and smelting department. In these functions, the king sent him to Paris in 1805 and to Vienna in 1815. Since 1810 his activity was limited to the Royal Porcelain Manufactory. From 1821 Georg Frick was his technical co-director there.
