German painter, graphic artist, architect, designer, pedagogue, writer, and socialist; belonged to the first generation of the artists' colony Worpswede: "What distinguishes Heinrich Vogeler among the other artists of Art Nouveau and Symbolism is the light-hearted fairy-tale-like quality of his imagery with its great fabulist art. Such fairy-tale pictures have in common the emphasis on a world of sensation in which mysterious processes take place." (Citation: Hans H. Hofstätter in: Symbolism and Art Nouveau in Painting and Graphic Art by Heinrich Vogeler, www.heinrich-vogeler.de).
