He exhibited at Krasoumná Jednota, the provincial association formed in 1835 to support fine arts. Members included patrons from royalty and the state, including Emperor Francis Joseph I and Francis Ferdinand d'Este. Artist members included a number of prestigious and respected painters and sculptors, including Christian Ruben, Jaroslav Cermák , Josef Vojtech Hellich , Gabriel Cornelius Ritter von Max, and Emanuel Max. The association organized annual salons and issued prizes, normally in aristocratic homes. By 1852 their events were held at the Klementinum in Prague, now a museum.
