Vogeler studied intermittently at the Düsseldorf Academy from 1890 to 1892. He belonged to the first generation of the Worpswede art colony and, thanks to his work, which was initially influenced primarily by Art Nouveau, he was its most lyrical representative. After the harrowing experiences of the First World War, he became enthusiastic about the ideals of the Russian Revolution, for the promotion of which he developed his so-called complex images (Komplexbilder). In 1931 he definitively emigrated to the Soviet Union. Literature: Thieme-Becker, Vollmer, Bénézit, Rief: H.V. – Das graphische Werk (Graphic Work), 1983; Elze: H.V. – Buchgraphik.
