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 late work of Picasso is characterised by works varying the ageless issue ‹painter and model›, being of lively eroticism. Particularly interesting is the dual presentation of the woman as a stylised flower on the left and next to it as a veristic figure in inviting pose. Picasso is painter and yet a voyeur.» from: Roland Doschka, Picasso - Arbeiten auf Papier, Hommage zum 125. Geburtstag 1881 - 2006, no. 42.
We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, Reutlingen, for the scientific consultation.
Provenance: collection Adolphe Louis Gaussen; private collection Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, Reutlingen; transferred by sale to private collection Kaiserstuhl, in 2007.
The French painter Adolphe Louis Gaussen (1871 - 1954) maintained an art collection besides to his own artistic work, being pursued after his death. It can be presumed that the drawing has been created explicitly for his collection, for the name Gaussen is legible in a prominent position.
Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, former Academic Council of the University Freiburg i.Br., planned several exhibitions of Classical Modernism as a curator of the Balinger Kunsthalle. Thanks to his friendship with Picasso, he could display works in his exhibitions that the public had rarely seen.
