He began his career in the Austrian Army and served during the Second Italian War of Independence (known as the Sardinian War in Austria), followed by service in the Austro-Prussian War. He reached the rank of Oberleutnant. From 1873 to 1875, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna, with Eduard Peithner von Lichtenfels and Anselm Feuerbach.
