Richard Schlösser completed an apprenticeship at the Hanover School of Applied Arts and was initially a student of Carl Bantzer and Karl Pohle in 1899, and from 1900 in Dresden he was a master student of Hermann Prell . With a grant, Schlösser spent 1903 in Italy, followed by stays in Paris and Madrid in 1906 and 1907.

For the first time in the address book, city and business manual of the royal residence city of Hanover and the city of Linden for the year 1907 created in 1906 for the following year , Richard Schlösser was listed as head of the household - and painter - with his residence at Bernwardtstraße 14 , first floor left, and the same address for his studio on the ground floor of Güntherstrasse 7 in Waldhausen . In that year, on September 15, 1906, Schlösser's son, the later botanist and seed breeding director Ludwig Arnold Schlösser, was born.

From 1906 to 1933 Schlösser taught himself as a teacher at the applied arts school in Hanover. His students included Adolf Wissel and Kurt Schwitters .

For the construction of the New Town Hall in Hanover, which was inaugurated in 1913 , Schlösser created the plaster and gold mosaic arches in the vestibules to the ballrooms in Art Nouveau forms on the theme of "sociability" as early as 1911 .

In 1918 Richard Schlösser became a member of the administrative board of the Kunstverein Hannover and since then has been a permanent member of the jury of the association's spring and autumn exhibitions (see: Autumn Exhibition of Lower Saxony Artists ).

Richard Schlösser died in Hanover in 1962.
