Usually the masters we know of painting have dreams of becoming painters since childhood, but John Baptistre Reiter is not.

LETT's father was a well-known carpenter, his craftsmanship was good, and the furniture was beautiful, and all LTECH had to do was to add the icing on the cake and paint patterns on the wooden furniture, which lasted for three years, and his painting skills got better and better.

One day, a knowledgeable furniture dealer said to LETT: "You are so good at painting, why don't you go to the art academy?"This sentence woke up the dreamer, and Reiter really got in, and he entered the famous Vienna Academy of Fine Arts.

The cost of studying art is very high, and during his university years, LTECH continued to work in applied art in his spare time, he went to the factory to paint porcelain, and at the same time, LTECH won many scholarships for his excellent grades, so that he could maintain his studies.

After becoming a professional painter, LETT's initial subjects were history paintings and genre paintings, and after becoming famous, he naturally received commissioned orders for portraits, and his portraits were very popular once they were published.

With some savings and improved living conditions, he bought a large house, a carriage with four horses, and a Moorish servant for the family, and then he got married, and he was only 24 years old when he first married, but this first marriage ended ten years later.

After resuming his singleness, Leiter put his mind on creation, those representative excellent works were produced during this period, he often participated in various art exhibitions, these ten years LETT in the career by leaps and bounds, until he once again entered the city.

When he got married for the second time, he was 53 years old, and this time he saw the wrong person, it was a materialistic woman who lived in luxury, so much so that he copied a lot of the works of the old masters in order to earn more money, until his wife died in 1889, and the next year he followed.
