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.

«At the beginning of the 1970s, the name ‹Regentag (rainy day)› played a special role. When Hundertwasser named his ship ‹Regentag›, he also gave himself this name. In 1970 - 72 he made the documentary film ‹Hundertwasser - Regentag› with the filmmaker Peter Schamoni, which was presented in Cannes and nominated for an Oscar. The book ‹Hundertwasser - Regentag› with Manfred Bockelmann was also written at the time.
Hundertwasser also worked with the German art printer Günter Dietz in Lengmoos/Bavaria during this time, in whose studio the ten serigraph prints of the portfolio ‹Look at it on a Rainy Day› were created. The complicated printing process with a multitude of colour separations, phosphorescent colours or reflecting glass dust layers led to increased luminosity and delightful colour effects.» from: https://hundertwasser.com/news_detail?&news_id=1652286518565.
