Life

Hagel studied from 1904 to 1909 at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts with Christian Griepenkerl and Heinrich Lefler . From 1910 to 1912 he moved to the Königliche Kunstgewerbeschule in Munich , where Julius Diez was his teacher. At the Bavarian Trade Show in 1912, Hagel won three second places with designs for Christian art. From 1913 Hagel worked as an illustrator for magazines such as Die Jugend , Die Dame , Leipziger Illustrirte and Die Muskete . He also illustrated books for Artur Wolf Verlag in Vienna, including Ferdinand Raimund's The Diamond of the Ghost King (1920) and Prosper Mérimées' Novellas of Passion (1923). In cooperation with the architect Paul Ludwig Troost , Hagel designed several transatlantic liners for the overseas traffic of the North German Lloyd , such as B. Berlin and Sierra Ventana . In 1929 he designed tapestries for Europa . Together with Troost, he was also involved in other projects of the United Workshops in Munich, for example in the 1920s on decor designs for Nymphenburg porcelain . After all, he also worked as a set designer for plays and operas , for example for Figaro's Wedding and A Waltz Dream . International recognition became apparent in 1926 when the London magazine The Studio devoted an article to his murals . Around 1927 he furnished the restaurant in the Nuremberg train station with a mural. From 1930 Hagel worked as an art teacher in Vienna, where after the annexation of Austria in 1938 he was banned from working as a teacher and artist for “racial” reasons .
