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».

Top class remains top class and outlasts all trends and fashions. What applies to the tailor-made suit from Savile Row can be transferred one-to-one to the Jaguar XJ 12 when it comes to automobiles. Deeply British, both are united by the unconditional commitment to understatement and the highest standards of workmanship, resulting in a look of inimitable timelessness. Thus, the last design of the company founder William Lyons (1901 - 1985) is likely to remain one of the most elegant figures on the streets for the time being: Class that can be seen and sensed without having to draw attention to it.
