Biography
Enslen was born in Vienna in 1792, and studied at the Academy of Berlin. He travelled in Italy, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, and his panoramas give proof of a knowledge of excellent linear and aerial perspective. He was the son of Johann Carl Enslen, with whom he worked closely. He died in Lille, France in 1866, aged 73.
