Life

Johann August Bartels was born at the time of the personal union between Great Britain and Hanover . The painter was later raised to the rank of Royal British and Electoral Braunschweig-Lüneburg court gilders. From 1755 onwards, he often worked with the court sculptor Johann Friedrich Blasius Ziesenis , who also came from the city of Hanover, and the master carpenter Johann Christian Lauber . Together, the trio created several structures on pulpits , mostly pulpit altars, and formed this type of altar into a distinctive unit in the Baroque style , for example the structure built together with other craftsmen on the altar of St. Osdag's Church in Mandelsloh .

No paintings by him are known.
