Edward Von Steinle (Austrian, 1810 – 1886)
Steinle came successively under the influence of the painters Leopold Kupelwieser, Johann Overbeck, and Peter von Cornelius, and was thus introduced into the methods of the German painters who had formed themselves into a school in Rome, the Nazarenes. Steinle went himself several times to Rome, but preferred to work in Germany. He received his first large commission, the painting of the chapel of the Castle of Rheineck, while living in Frankfurt; a second one was for work in the Hall of the Emperors (Kaisersaal) in Frankfurt, where he painted the pictures of Albert I and Ferdinand III. These commissions and his friendship with Philipp Veit and the Brentano family decided him to take up his permanent residence in Frankfurt. From 1850 he was professor of historical painting at the Städel Art Institute of Frankfurt.
Like his friend Schwind he was one of the painters of the Romantic School who were largest in their scope. Like Schwind also he was probably more adept in the art of painting ordinary subjects. Still, Constant von Wurzbach was able to write an appreciation of Steinle with the title Ein Madonnamaler unserer Zeit (Vienna, 1879), for Steinle left more than a hundred religious panel pictures, besides numerous cartoons for church windows. He was also regarded as a master of monumental fresco painting in the districts of the Rhine.
