Karl Hauptmann
«The Feldberg Painter»
24th April 1880 – 7th April 1947
Karl Hauptmann was born on 25th of April in 1880 in Freiburg i.Br., Germany. He received his artistic training in Nürnberg and Munich and was thereafter engaged as a decorative painter.
In 1908 he produced the first of what were to be his typical Black Forest paintings. In the years between 1915 and 1919, he produced numerous images of the Alpine region he had visited during his deployment with the mountain infantry in the First World War.
In 1918 Karl Hauptmann purchased «Molerhüsli», which for him encompassed his dwelling, atelier, and exhibition space. It soon became a favourite meeting place for skiers, hikers, students, and visitors to Feldberg.
Due to Hauptmann’s ever-present health problems, his doctor prescribed a trip to Italy in 1940, to which he again travelled the following year.
On 7th of April in 1947, Karl Hauptmann died at the age of 67 at his «Molerhüsli».

Mattioli, Carlo
1911 Modena - 1994 Parma.
Landscape with red poppy. Oil on cardboard. Signed lower right.
Typical and exceptionally expressive work of this important Italian artist. Main motifs of his works, which frequently appear mystical or even surreal and seem to open the view into another fairytale world, are landscapes from various abstraction levels, executed in remarkable colours, or religious themes.
1911 Modena - 1994 Parma.
Landschaft mit rotem Mohn. Öl auf Karton. U.r. sign.
H. 39,8,
Typisches und ausgesprochen ausdrucksstarkes Werk des bedeutenden italienischen Malers. Motive seiner Arbeiten, die oft mystisch anmuten und den Blick in eine andere, teilweise märchenhafte Welt zu eröffnen scheinen, sind häufig in expressiven Farben ausgeführte Landschaften unterschiedlichen Abstraktionsgrades sowie religiöse Themen.
