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.

«Spitzweg suggests the shadows of the figure on the ground. It is this optical independence, since the activated line follows the active gaze of the draughtsman, which now silhouettedly highlights the figure. Nevertheless, the volume of the body is preserved in every detail. [...] Spitzweg strives to refine the clarity of the anatomical structure. The increased alternation of impressions by means of filigree given miniature forms is preferred by the draughtsman Spitzweg. The linear sharpening of the typology and the resulting separation of this from the background foil is striking in the male nudes.» from: Siegfried Wichmann, Spitzweg, Die frühesten Spitzwegbilder, Reihe für vergleichende und angewandte Kunstgeschichte (R.f.v.u.a.K.), without number, Lipp Verlag Munich n.d., p. 17.
«Several nude drawings are known from Spitzweg's œuvre, some of them even bear the name of the person depicted. Most of these nude drawings were done between 1831 and 1835.» (Detlef Rosenberger, Oberostendorf, 01.06.2020).
