Kurt Hubertus Paesler-Luschkowko (also Kurt Hubertus von Paesler-Luschkowko ) (born November 3, 1892 at Gut Luschkau , Schwetz district , West Prussia ; † February 19, 1976 in Munich ) was a German painter and graphic artist .

Life

Paesler was born as the son of the landowner Paul Anton Paesler and Frida Rasmus on the Luschkau estate in the Schwetz district.

From 1911 to 1912 he trained as an artist with Lothar von Kunowski in Düsseldorf and from 1920 to 1922 with Maxmüller and the academy teacher Adolf Schinnerer in Munich . Study trips to Poland and Russia followed . From 1930 to 1932 the artist had a studio in Via Margutta in Rome . On May 26, 1944, Paesler-Luschkowko, who had served in both world wars, married Alice Schreuer, a craftsman from Vienna , in the manor chapel .

Most of his works were created in Marseille , Paris , Rome and Munich . In 1950 he created the fresco cycle in the Generalate House of the Salvatorians in Via della Conciliazione in Rome, in the Palazzo Cardinal Cesi. The fresco cycle no longer exists these days. In 1952, in the Collegium Germanicum Hungaricum , in Via S. Nicola da Tolentino, the second cycle of frescoes was created with the surroundings of the lands of the Jesuit order as the main motif (Bracciano, Vicarello, the ruined city of Santa Maria Galeria). On another floor of the Generalate he created frescoes of the Marienburg, Salzburg, Ragusa, and Munich. This was followed by a red pencil cycle of the Eternal City, Ostia Antica, Rocca di Papa, and the Roman ruins in the Campagna Romana . Several watercolors of the flora of the Castelli Romani were created at the same time . Paesler-Luschkowko received one last order from the city of Munich. He drew houses and streets in the old town in the post-war period before they fell victim to urban redevelopment. One of his last pictures is a representation of the subway construction site at Stachus.

The artist was with the poet Ricarda Huch , the philosopher Ludwig Klages , the author, biologist, editor and psychotherapist Herbert Fritsche , the Austrian painter and portraitist Rudolf vonzeileissen , the animal painter Adda Kesselkaul , the portraitist Erna Peters-Schüler, and the art historian Hans Ries, friends.

He drew in the style of the old masters with red chalk and silver pencil . His graphic works found their way into the Kupferstichkabinett Berlin , the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich and the Albertina in Vienna .

Kurt Hubertus Paesler-Luschkowko died on February 19, 1976 in Munich at the age of 83. His grave is in the forest cemetery .
