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.

«Annie Hystak's art is inspired by so much emotion, by so much joy in creating and giving these delicacies, that it becomes an experience for the viewer as well.» This is how Máximo Asenjo describes the exceptional jewellery of an unique jewellery designer in his 1921 article in «Dekorative Kunst»: Annie Hystak. Born in 1876 in Brno, Czech Republic, the goldsmith died in Freiburg i.Br. after residencies in Berlin, Munich and Paris in 1921. Her jewellery, which can be attributed neither to Historism nor Art Nouveau nor the emerging Art Deco, captivates with its own language of form and colour and is simply Annie Hystak. In their issue from 30 June 1924, the Time Magazine describes her as a jewellery artist who makes her pieces exclusively for her clients, first studying their hand and personality for a ring creation. Then translating this knowledge with precious stones, she brings them to optimal expression in disciplined floral settings. She loves playing with material surfaces and the use of coloured stones. As she always speaks her own language, her creations are truly timeless.
Provenance: Estate of the artist to a long-time confidante; by succession transferred to private collection Freiburg i.Br.
