Career
From Egypt, whither he accompanied Professor Lepsius, he brought many excellent sketches of the Pyramids, Labyrinths, &c. lieutenant is to be regretted that he was obliged to make but a short stay on account of his health. His painting of "Chamsyn in the Desert," in the possession of the Emperor of Germany, was produced in 1845, and is greatly admired.
He died at Frascati, near Rome, in 1865.
The Modern Gallery at Munich has his Two Memnons near Thebes.
