German lithographer, draftsman and painter, he received the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in 1971. In 1993, the German Federal Post Office issued a 100-penny special stamp with the motif "audience" in his honor as part of the series "German painting of the 20th century". "I follow an urge and feel it as my task that I make visible what moves me, depresses me, fills me with concern or also amuses and amuses me, create it. For the most part, I can stick to the facts like a chronicler. But that is the gift: to think in pictures." (Quote: APW, 1967, seen on https://www.weber-museum.de/html).
