Veit Hanns Schnorr von Carolsfeld

Veit Hanns Friedrich Schnorr von Carolsfeld (11 May 1764 – 30 April 1841) was a German portraitist.

He was a friend of the poet Johann Gottfried Seume, whom he set out to accompany in 1801 on a journey to Syracuse, Sicily, but separated from him after travelling no further than Vienna.

[2] In 1814, after the death of Johann Friedrich August Tischbein, he became director, which he remained until 1841.

His works include, among many others, portraits of Seume and Friedrich Rochlitz.
