Biography:
Beck was a learned Austrian nobleman, diplomat, lawyer, and collector. He studied law in Pauda and traveled through the Middle-East. He held high positions at the Viennese court of three Habsburg emperors, as a diplomat, head of treasury etc. He was a close friend of Carolus Clusius and other nobles and scholars at the court of Maximilian II.

His main interests were books and history. He created a vast humanist library, a collection of exotic rarities and a garden with antique statues and gravestones at his castle in Ebreichsdorf near Vienna. Drawings of these statues by Carolus Clusius are in the manuscript collection of the National Library in The Hague (MS 72B22).

Beck was the owner of a large collection of antique statues and graves (lapidarium) at his castle in Ebreichsdorf near Vienna.
