Received in Dresden the Villa Romana award. 1909 until 1910 trip to Italy, together with the famos sculptor Ernst Barlach in Florence. 1910 corresponding member of the „Berlin Secession“. Since 1911 activ in Munich. 1913 co-founder of the "New Secession Munich". The artist received 1917 from King Ludwig III. the title of a Royal professor. His works belong to the so-called "verschollenen Generation" (Forgotten Generation), which describes a generation of young German artists born between 1890 and 1905. Artists who didn't have the possibility of continuous working and neither to exhibit consistently, because their lifes and creation was influenced by the difficult circumstances of two World Wars. Mainly of the Nazi Regime, they became victims of the denunciation of '“Degenerate Art“. Their early work was often destroyed or torn apart and so they fall into oblivion. Until several newer publications and exhibitions, which reminded on their first successes, drawn a wide attention from museums and privat collectors to them. Recently many artists of this generation been revalued and continue to climb in value. They are also called „Expressive Realists“.
Represented in the collections of several German museums and galleries including Freiburg im Breisgau, Städtische Sammlungen; Cologne, Wallraf-Richartz-Museum; Nuremberg, Städtische Kunstsammlungen; Munich, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus; Munich, Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen.

We are grateful to Mrs. Anna Schinnerer (Widow of the artist) and Mss Christiane Ernst for confirming the painting.
An excellent created night scene modeled with the light in expressive verve. Individual parts are increased others remain in the dark and unreal. It appears as a spatial illusion with the tension between light and shadow. Early paintings by the artist cannot often be found at the art market today.
