Joseph Lanzedelly the Elder
Joseph Lanzedelly the Elder , also Josef Lanzedelli (born February 26, 1772 in Anpezo , Fürstete Grafschaft Tirol , † December 5, 1831 in Vienna ), was an Austrian genre , miniature and portrait painter and lithographer .
Life
Lanzedelly studied at the Accademia di belle arti di Venezia and at the Academy of United Fine Arts Vienna . He then worked mainly as a lithographer. He was not only the most versatile, but also the most productive Viennese lithographer in the early days of the new type of printing, and alongside Adolf Kunike , an employee of Senefelder in Vienna, he was probably the first to use the new technology full-time. While Lanzedelly's first lithographs were published by Adolf Kunike, he later worked almost exclusively for the Lithographic Institute in Vienna. Noteworthy are his successful attempts in the field of color lithography, which, through him and Peter Fendi , experienced a brief but highly significant boom in Vienna between 1819 and 1823. His "Transylvanian Fair" after Franz Neuhauser, printed from nine plates, is famous (six sheets in pen, chalk and mezzotint style). Lanzedelly worked according to his own and other people's templates. His extremely extensive work includes scenes from folk life , genre scenes based on French and English models, reproductions and from 1818 a large number of individual portraits. Its leaves were widely used. He was a very popular portraitist. His caricature genre representations were published by Verlag Bermann under the title Wiener Scenen from 1818 onwards. In 1825 he published the Vienna Daily Events . Lanzedelly was the father of the painters Karl Lanzedelly (1815–1865) and Joseph Lanzedelly the Younger (1807–1879).
