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.

Blatt 22 aus der Serie «Vedute di Roma».
Die ersten Blätter der 134 Stadtveduten aus der Serie «Vedute di Roma» erschienen im Jahre 1751. Piranesi setzte die gezeigten Monumente durch eine dynamische Perspektive und übersteigerte Dimensionen in Szene. So wirken die hinter winzigen Staffagefiguren hervorragenden Bauten durch ihren Detailreichtum sowie starke Hell-Dunkel-Kontraste großartig und machtvoll.
