Vinzenz Georg Kininger (1767 Regensburg - 1851 Vienna) was a very
well-known Viennese watercolor artist, portrait miniaturist, engraver
and lithographer. He came with his parents in 1778 to Vienna and in
1780, at the age of 13, entered the Vienna Academy where he became a
pupil of the engraver Professor J. Schmutzer. Kininger was also the most
favorite student of the Academy Director H. Fueger, who strongly
sponsored him. In 1807 the artist became himself Professor of Mezzotinto
Engraving at the Vienna Academy. He was very known as portraitist and
illustrator. Especially portraits made him so popular, that he was
flooded with commissions from representatives of Vienna aristocracy.
Works
by Kininger belong today to collections of the Austrian National
Gallery, the Viennese museum "Albertina" and many other important
Austrian and international museums.
