Josef Eidenberger
Born 1899 in the little town of Goisern, Austria, Josef Eidenberger began his artistic career as a landscape painter, showing great perception for the mood of the local countryside. In 1923 he enrolled in the famed Graphic Academy of art in Vienna, and studied under Professor Alfred Cossman. Starting with copper engraving*, Eidenberger soon turned to etching as a medium. His specialized studies and love for subtle color led him to the complicated process of color etching*. Greatly influenced by the Austrian etcher Luigi Kasimir, Eidenberger improved his technique from plate to plate. His eye for detail and meticulous execution of each plate has brought him many commissions from city officials and members of the business communities throughout Europe, especially in Austria and Germany. In December of 1977, the Austrian government bestowed upon Eidenberger the honorary title of Professor of the Arts in appreciation for his contribution to the advancement of fine arts.
