Julius Troschel: Resting , 1860

Julius Troschel (born July 30, 1806 in Berlin , † March 26, 1863 in Rome , Italy ) was a German sculptor .

Life

Julius Troschel, one of twelve children of the Justice Council and Sunday painter Ernst Leberecht Troschel (1776–1850), became a student of Christian Daniel Rauch from 1824 and exhibited a Theseus relief for the first time in the same year . In 1833 he was awarded the state prize for the relief Telemachus asks Odysseus for the life of the singer Pheimios , which means that he received a scholarship to continue his education in Rome. In 1837 he applied unsuccessfully for a position at the Düsseldorf Academy. He married Vittoria Buti in Rome and mainly created reliefs and statuettes on mythological and genre-like themes, as well as some portrait busts and grave monuments. In 1844 his son Wilhelm Troschel , who was also to become a sculptor, was born in Rome.
