  • Australian dictionary of biography, viewed online 29 Juen 2014 (Johann Joseph Eugen von Guerard (1812-1901), artist, was born in Vienna ... settling at Naples in 1832. For six years he painted landscapes in southern Italy and Sicily. He then moved to Dusseldorf where he studied under Johann Wilhelm Schirmer at the academy and exhibited regularly at Leipzig and Berlin. He left Dusseldorf in 1848 possibly for the Californian goldfields. In 1852 he sailed from England in the Windermere, lured by the gold rush. He arrived at Geelong on 24 December and two weeks later left for Ballarat ... For sixteen years Guerard travelled and sketched in the wilds of Victoria, Tasmania, New South Wales, South Australia and New Zealand, sometimes in company with such scientific expeditions as those led by Alfred Howitt in 1860 and Georg von Neumayer in 1862 ... He was fluent in English, French, Italian and German, but signed his name in the German form ... In 1882 Guerard returned to Europe ... When the Australian banks crashed in 1893 he lost all his investments and apparently lived in poverty until he died aged 89 in Chelsea on 17 April 1901 ...) http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/guerard-johann-joseph-eugen-von-3677
