Josef Carlone

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joseph Leopold Carlone (* ... 1678 ; † ... November 1739 ) was a Styrian baroque master builder.

Life

He was the scion of the Italian-Swiss family of artists , son of Joachim Carlone and brother of Franz Anton Carlone . From 1696 to 1700 he wandered and then worked in Graz , where he passed his master mason examination in 1704. From 1708 he was (together with Anton Leitner and Andreas Stengg ) examination commissioner and from 1714 “landscape master mason”, in which capacity he worked for a year in Warasdin (on behalf of the landscape) . Soon after his father's death, he took over his workshop. His widow Juliane (* 1699), of whom he had seven children, married his colleague Josef Hueber in 1740 , who finished his unfinished works.
