Life
Johann Baptist Glunk was born in Stockach, but the family soon moved to Löffingen , where he went to school with his cousin Hans Bernhard Glunk (1696–1766, from 1736 to 1766 as Petrus Glunk Abbot of the Augustinian Canons of St. Märgen ) went. Johann Baptist Glunk can be traced back to Vienna in 1721 at the latest, when he married Barbara Endorffer, who was two years older than him. He could have been a student of the painter Johann Friedrich Fischer, who can be proven to have been the godfather of the couple's christening in 1728. From 1733 he studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts and was named a university painter from 1734 . He prepared certificates, diplomas, registry books and portraits of the professors. Glunk also found clients in aristocratic circles , for example portraits of Count Johann Ferdinand II. Von Kuefstein and his wife Maria Anna von Dietrichstein , which can be dated to around 1760, have been preserved at Greillenstein Castle .
His son, Anton Glunk (1728–1799) was also an academic painter in Vienna and was a student of the court painter Martin van Meytens .
