Antonin Langweil was born in 1791 in Postoloprty, a small town about 60 km northwest of Prague.
Armed with the new knowledge, he opened up a lithography workshop in Prague.
Langweil exhibited his model to the public, in the unfinished form, several times during these eleven years.
In 1837, Langweil died after years of sufferings from tuberculosis.
