Professor Hermann Dischler
25th September 1866 – 20th March 1935
Hermann Dischler was born on the 25th of September in 1866 in Freiburg i.Br. He received his artistic training in the art school in Karlsruhe, he was student of Gustav Schönleber. Thereafter he was engaged as a painter in the Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald area.
1894, after he finished his studies, he built himself an artist’s workroom in Freiburg i.Br. At this time he went on a lot of trips and his trusty camera followed him everywhere. Five years later he started to number and comment his artworks, which he collected in 29 «Bildbüchern (books of pictures)».
In the winter months from 1905 to 1907 he stayed in the Todtnauer Hütte, where a lot of his oil studies arise.
The snowy winter landscapes became his typical theme and he called himself «Schneemoler (snowpainter)». 1917 he received his professorship by Grand Duke Friedrich II.
In 1927 he had an exhibition with artists like Curt Liebich, Julius Heffner, Wilhelm Nagel, Wilhelm Wickertsheimer a.o., they called themselves «Die Schwarzwälder (the Black Forests)». He died on the 20th of March in 1935 in Hinterzarten. Today his works are extremely appreciated because the snowy landscape present the untouched nature.

The business records of the Galerie Heinemann, Munich, show that the present painting was originally the reverse of a still life by Karl Hagemeister (1848 - 1933) and that the panel was divided by sawing after its acquisition from the Kern Collection in Berlin. The separated, thin panel halves were mounted on new backing boards. The formerly joined recto is a still life depicting a ginger pot, a silver cup and fruits and is now kept in the Bröhan Museum, Berlin, with inventory number 86-067.
It would have been extraordinary, but not surprising, if the painter friends Karl Hagemeister and Carl Schuch shared a support during a joint stay in Paris in 1884. Since both artists were in close fruitful exchange and trained each other, one could imagine that on one of their forays there was suddenly not a single free picture support available and Carl Schuch, in order to show his friend how best to capture that mood in the avenue, quickly reached for the back of Hagemeister's painting. Whether it happened so spontaneously or whether a long-planned artistic competition took place on this separated panel will probably remain a secret forever.
