In 1823, he was appointed Inspector (curator) for the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister; becoming its Director in 1834. He was one of the last exponents of pure Classicism in Germany. He died in Vienna, while returning from a trip to Italy. In Dresden

He was a longtime member of the Dresden Freemasons lodge, "Zum goldenen Apfel" (The Golden Apple). His students at the Academy included the Nazareners Carl Eggers and Johannes Veit.
