History, portrait, and landscape painter, nephew and pupil in Cassel of Jo- hann Heinrich Tischbein the elder ; went in 1766 to Hamburg, where he restored old pictures, copied after Berchem and Wouwerman with great truthfulness, and then devoted himself to portrait painting ; in 1771-73 studied in Holland after the old masters, returned to Cassel, went to Berlin in 1777, and to Rome in 1779. Two years later we find him in Ziirich, mak- ing drawings for Lavater, in 1782 at Milan, and in 1783 again in Rome, whence he went with Goethe to Naples in 1787, and was made director of the Academy there in 1789.
