Others

In his memoirs, Leo Lippmann reported on a dispute between Mönckeberg and Georg Hulbe , which ended with Hulbe paying a fine. On the Hulbe-Haus , built by Hulbe in Mönckebergstrasse from 1910 to 1911 , he had a relief affixed as satirical retaliation: a monk (as in the Mönckeberg family coat of arms), led by a fool on a donkey up a mountain and the flag of art pulling behind him through the dirt, Hummel calling out his familiar expletive phrase.

Lippmann wrote that Rudolf Mönckeberg was one of the sharpest opponents of social democracy and that he took offense at drawings by Ferdinand von Reznicek , one of the draftsmen of " Simplicissimus ", which were exhibited in Georg Hulbe's exhibition rooms - at that time still on Jungfernstieg.
