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.

Lassen, Holger
Geb. 1965 Tennenlohe, lebt und arbeitet in Vechelde.
«Reiterin (horsewoman)». 2000. Bronze with dark patina. Monogrammed on the plinth. Verso numbered 5/12 on the plinth and stamped «Guss Strehle».
With his sculpture «Reiterin (horsewoman)» Holger Lassen clearly refers to the «Reitende Amazone (horse riding Amazone)» by the Berlin sculptor Louis Tuaillon (1862 - 1919). The strong, almost renaissancelike looking horse stands in an exciting contrast to the delicate executed girl on its back and is that way creating an appealing moment of tension despite of the composition's calmness and balance.
Provenance: directly from the artist's studio.
Geb. 1965 Tennenlohe, lebt und arbeitet in Vechelde.
«Reiterin». 2000. Bronze, dunkel patiniert. Auf der Plinthe monogr. Verso auf der Plinthe 5/12 num. und gestempelt «Guss Strehle».
Mit seiner Skulptur «Reiterin» nimmt Holger Lassen deutlich Bezug auf die «Reitende Amazone» des Berliner Bildhauers Louis Tuaillon (1862 - 1919). Das kräftige, beinahe renaissancehaft wirkende Pferd kontrastiert mit der feingliedrig gearbeiteten Mädchengestalt auf seinem Rücken und erzeugt so trotz aller Ruhe und Ausgewogenheit der Plastik ein reizvolles Spannungsmoment.
Provenienz: Atelier des Künstlers.
