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.

Palma, Jacopo called Palma Giovane resp. Jacopo Negretti after
Germany or Flemish early 17th C.
The Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian.
Oil on panel. Unsigned.
H 47, W 33 cm (support). Gold frame with arch segment.
This painting shows a northern Alpine copy of the Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian, which goes back to a model by Palma Giovane (1550 - 1628) that has probably not survived. Prints and other variations in oil supply the evidence, one of which is in the Milwaukee Art Museum with the inventory number M1991.40.
The image probably made its way across the Alps in the form of a copper engraving. Soon after the creation of Palma's popular pictorial invention, it was reproduced by Aegidius Sadeler the younger (1568 - 1629) and Thomas de Leu (around 1555 - 1612) as copperplate engravings, once laterally correct and the other reversed thus achieving great fame throughout Europe. These resulted in variations of the composition in oil by various non-Italian artists, including an oil painting in the Corsini Collection in Rome (inventory number 248).
Possessing such a copper engraving by de Leu as a template, the Flemish or German painter of this image created his Italian-inspired copy of the subject with strong mannerist traits in the finest form of painting. It is an excellent example of European cultural exchange in the early 17th century.

Provenance: private collection Markgräflerland.
