He decided to pursue a career as an artist at a relatively young age and enrolled in the Academy in Munich. Here he studied with Albert Zimmerman [1808-1888] a professor and landscape painter at the Academy and with Julius Lange [1817-1878]. It was as a painter of Alpine landscapes that Unterberger first drew recognition, views particularly set in his native Tyrol. In 1860 Unterberger continued his studies in Düsseldorf; in what was to be a particularly significant period he was much taken by the work of Oswald Aschenbach [1827-1905] a landscape painter and his brother Andreas [1815-1910] also a landscape painter who worked extensively in Scandinavia before moving to Italy in the 1870’s.
