Artists like Christian Landenberger , Otto Ubbelohde , Paul Crodel, Wilhelm Ludwig Lehmann became his students and testify for him through their works: everywhere you can feel, even if modified over time, in development and advancing into new territory, the breath of the Lier tradition as the art of intimate landscape portrayal, loving grasping and handling of the near and small, which is heightened by the medium of art in the meaningful and relevant.
