Hermann Buschmann (painter)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hermann Buschmann (born December 3, 1875 in Scharmbeck , † September 20, 1961 in Kallmünz ) was a German painter.

Live and act

After an apprenticeship as a decorative painter in Bremen, Buschmann went to Munich and took lessons at Moritz Weinhold's private school and from Hermann Groeber , who had taken over the nude class at Ludwig Schmid-Reutte and Paul Nauen's private painting school in 1899 . In 1901 Hermann Buschmann moved to Nuremberg , where he attended the arts and crafts school from 1902–1903 . From 1908 he worked as a freelance artist. From 1944 he took up his residence in Kallmünz after being bombed in Nuremberg. In Kallmünz he lived completely impoverished and died in a nursing home in 1961.

Buschmann was a member of the artists' associations Die Hütte , Nuremberg Artists' Cooperative and Artists' Hermitage .

For the Church of the Resurrection , consecrated in Fürth in 1826 , Buschmann designed and executed a ceiling painting on behalf of the parish. This was created in 1912/1913, when the church underwent a thorough renovation, in which a coffered ceiling was installed instead of the previous flat vault . The scene from the Old Testament , The Sermon on the Mount , depicted by Buschmann , refers to the other furnishings of the church, especially the large altar.

Two paintings by Buschmann are offered on the Internet at Deutsche Maler - Fränkische Maler , a lot on the Pegnitz ( Satzinger Mühle ) in Hammer near Nuremberg (a watercolor in A4 size) and the city of Happurg near Hersbruck (an oil painting from the year 1925 in the dimensions 75 × 120 cm).
