Karl Glinzer

Justus Wilhelm Karl Glinzer (2 February 1802, Guxhagen - 28 April 1878, Kassel) was a German painter and lithographer, in the Biedermeier style.

Later, he attended a formal drawing school, followed by studies with Justus Krauskopf [de], who would become a lifelong mentor.

After many years of making a living from commissioned portraits, the economic situation in Kassel forced him to take up teaching.

Necessity of a reform of the same") and Der Elementar-Zeichenunterricht nach Dictaten, allein mögliche Unterrichts-Methode im eng zugemessenen Raum der Volksschule ("Elementary drawing lessons according to dictates, the only possible teaching method in the tightly allocated space of the elementary school"), both from 1868.

In addition to his portraits, he produced lithographic nature studies, some scenes from mythology, and a few religious works; notably "On the Road to Emmaus" for a church in the Wehlheiden [de] district of Kassel.
