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 Vladimir Mother of God is characterized by the close bond - cheek to cheek - between mother and child and is the most worshipped icon in Russia. The type of depiction derives from a popular icon, which was located in a cathedral in Vladimir from the 12th to the 14th Century. While there are some local variations of this depiction with divergent names, the Vladimirskaya can be detected by the visible sole of Christ's left foot.

Die Gottesmutter von Vladimir zeichnet sich durch die enge Bindung - Wange an Wange - von Mutter und Kind aus und wird in Russland von allen Ikonen am höchsten verehrt. Der Bildtypus stammt von einer bekannten Ikone, welche sich vom 12. bis 14. Jahrhundert in einer Kathedrale in Vladimir befand. Es bestehen einige lokale Varianten dieser Darstellung mit anderer Namensgebung, wobei sich die Vladimirskaja daran erkennen lässt, dass die linke Fußsohle des Christuskindes zu sehen ist.
