Eduard Cramolini

[1] Cramolini studied drawing intermittently at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna from 1823 to 1826.

Cramolini was very well connected in the Viennese artistic scene of his time.

He was a member of the Künstlerhaus, Gesellschaft bildender Künstler Österreichs [de] and its predecessor associations Eintracht and Albrecht-Dürer-Verein as well as the association Grüne Insel.

[2] According to a tradition, the Austrian name Gschnas [de] for a costume festival is said to go back to him.

[4] In an obituary in the Neue Freie Presse, Cramolini was characterised as "a Viennese in the Vormärz sense of the word: open, straight, coarse and quick-witted, and always ready for original ideas and coarse-grained jokes.
