He learned painting by Franz von Stuck (a wellknown Munich painter - one of the bavaraian painter-kings around 1900). After that he went to Paris and saw works from Toulouse Lautrec. You will see the influence by looking at his posters and early works.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes from Munich / Germany<BR/>HendrikAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2402275990823741920.post-11050172362695841922008-11-19T13:50:00.000-05:002008-11-19T13:50:00.000-05:00thanks to you i am now slightly smarter than i was...thanks to you i am now slightly smarter than i was before, because i know what Bad Lauterburg is.

The images from The Wall could have been directly cribbed from this work & yet no reference I can find on the net. I had never heard of Schnackenberg... until now. You mention that you were surprised at the lack of www info regarding him as well.
