Liepmann Fraenckel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Liepmann Fraenckel , also Lippmann F. or Fränckel (born April 26, 1772 in Parchim , † March 26, 1857 in Copenhagen ) was a German miniature painter .

After completing his commercial training, Fraenckel went to the Danish Art Academy in Copenhagen in 1792, where he was taught by the miniaturist Frederik Christian Camradt . Franckel worked mainly in Denmark and became a Royal Danish court miniature painter in 1819. In the meantime he also worked at times as a portraitist in pastel and miniature painting in Sweden. His Danish works are stylistically influenced by Camradt, Heinrich Jacob Aldenrath and Christian Horneman , while the Swedish works are similar to those of Domenico Bossi . In addition, he was an entrepreneur and for many years the owner of a wallpaper factory, which is why he severely restricted his artistic work from 1826.
