Remarks
- ↑ The information from operissimo is not processed here in the text, since operissimo claims that he was a student of Marie Unger-Haupt . According to Eisenberg, however, this applies to Josef Gerhartz, who was born in 1867 . Eisenberg writes explicitly: This artist is not to be confused [with the artist to whom this article belongs]. Who is wrong, whether Eisenberg or Operissimo, cannot be determined here and requires further examination.
