Life
Winter's father Joseph Georg died early. His widowed mother then married Johann Michael Mettenleiter , who taught his stepson in such a way that he was soon able to copy some “pictures from the gallery in Munich”.
In 1806 - during the so-called French era - Heinrich E. Winter became professor for the art of drawing in Sarreguemines , France, but returned to Munich in 1809, where he was employed at the lithographic institute of the Royal Council of State founded by Mettenleiter .
Works
Winter contributed the 88 portrait medallions to the work Portraite of the most famous composers of music , which appeared between 1813 and 1821 in 22 booklets with texts by Felix Joseph Lipowsky . In 1820 Winter published a collection of landscape drawings for aspiring and more experienced students .
