The details
Biography
Sophie Friederike Dinglinger (1736–1791) was a German painter.
Life and work
Born in Dresden, Dinglinger was the daughter of goldsmith Johann Friedrich Dinglinger, and granddauther of the better known goldsmith Johann Melchior Dinglinger. She studied with Adam Friedrich Oeser. She invented a method to fix pastel to paper which was used by, among others, Dora Stock; this appears to have allowed the use of deeper colors and a naturalistic treatment of fabric. She produced miniature paintings and pastels during her career. Henriette-Félicité Tassaert lived with Dinglinger during the start of her sojourn in Dresden.
