Life
Karl Schmoll von Eisenwerth came from St. Wendel in Saarland on his father's side and from Vienna on his mother's side. His father was the civil engineer Anton Adolph Schmoll called Eisenwerth . Schmoll von Eisenwerth grew up in Vienna, St. Wendel and Darmstadt , where he came into contact with Art Nouveau. From 1899 to 1901 he studied with Paul Hoecker and Ludwig von Herterich at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and painted in Dachau , Burghausen and on the Chiemsee . In 1906 he taught printmaking and drawing at the private Munich art school of Hermann Obrist and Wilhelm von Debschitz ( Debschitz School ).

The large mural in the historical reading room of the Bonatz building of the University Library of Tübingen , which depicts the victim that Homer in the Odyssey in the XI. Singing portrays.
Although Karl Schmoll von Eisenwerth had been the landowner in the Austrian Easter mountain near Braunau am Inn since 1924 and was also in close contact with aristocrats, his family had never received a letter of nobility and was therefore called Schmoll von Eisenwerth without justification . It was not until 1910 that the Württemberg Ministry of Justice approved him to use the name Schmoll von Eisenwerth as his real name, after he had submitted a request to continue the name he had used the year before.
