Josef Eduard Teltscher (15 January 1801 in Prague, Bohemia – 7 July 1837 in Piraeus, Greece)[1] was a painter and lithographer from the Austrian Empire. He was one of the best Viennese portrait lithographers and watercolourists of the first half of the nineteenth century in Central Europe, and as a miniaturist, according to his contemporaries, he was no less than Moritz Daffinger himself.
