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.

«Marga Behrends (b. 1907). ‹As soon as I see the audience, I feel like a young girl›. A picture by Heinrich Zille from the twenties: a very young woman leaning against a car in the Friedrichstraße. Around her other women, revue dancers and prostitutes. During their break, they eat potato pancakes and talk. Someone photographs the young woman as she is being painted by Zille, and soon she graces the advertising pillars of Berlin as a model for cosmetics.
Her father is a vice squad officer, nicknamed ‹Bulle Emil›; of course, he would have objected to this nonsense. So, she took dance lessons in secret. Just as secretly, she applied to the Admiralspalast, the newly opened revue theatre, as a ‹Tillergirl›. ‹I really forced myself on them›, she later recalls, and apparently the pretty brat's loud charm fitted into the concept. Even without her parents' permission, she was hired as a revue dancer. [...]
In 2006, she appears as the last Tillergirl at the reopening of the Admiralspalast, her ‹Admi›. She sings a song she wrote herself: ‹Women have no soul, don't get involved with them, all men are camels and always fall in!›» from: Candida Splett, Berliner Tagesspiegel, 24.06.2010.
Provenance: private possession Wiesbaden.
