Heinrich Ambros Eckert

Heinrich Ambros Eckert (16 October 1807 – 10 February 1840) was a German painter of battle-pieces.

In 1825 he attended the academy at Munich, and afterwards visited the Tyrol and France.

Between 1835 and 1840, in conjunction with Monten and Schelver, he published a work upon the German federal army, with two hundred coloured lithographic plates; and another illustrating the return of the Russian troops to their homes.

He died at Munich in 1840, while engaged upon a picture of the great review near that city before the Emperor of Russia.

Besides genre subjects and battle-pieces he painted marine views.
