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 early work from Eckenbrecher, when he was just 16 or 17 years old, already shows his existing talent before he had even enjoyed an academic education. His father was a man of the world and Themistokles often accompanied him on his travels. At an early age, he told his parents that he wanted to become a marine and landscape painter. The young artist quickly developed a passion for sailing ships, which he made a recurring motif in his works. He would perfect the subtle light moods and balanced compositions evident in his early work later with his private teacher Oswald Achenbach (1827 - 1905) at the Düsseldorf School of Painting between 1861 and 1863.
