Life

Tempeltey was the son of the room painter Johann Friedrich Tempeltey. At the age of 14, he studied at the Academy of Arts in Berlin from October 1816 until the 1820s . First he worked with his father and became a drawing teacher at the Friedrichwerdersches Gymnasium in Berlin. After 12 years he gave up this work in order to be able to devote himself more to the reproduction of paintings and drawings. Since 1822 he has participated in the exhibitions of the Berlin Academy with drawings and lithographs. In 1844 he became a member of the Berlin Academy.

In addition to landscape painting , he drew cityscapes and specialized in lithography , which he also made from models by other artists of his time, for example after Anton von Lowtzow . He created sample books and textbooks for this painting, in which the creation of the work was documented from outline to execution. A miniature album on Berlin and 30 drawings from Bremen and Bremerhaven that the art and wallpaper dealer H. L. J. Kraus had printed in Bremen are well known. In 1853 he created the lithograph of the Bremerhaven memorial sheet based on drawings by Friedrich August Borchel.

He was married to Henriette Emilie Luise Felisch; her son Oscar Tempeltey also became a painter.
