German lithographer, draughtsman and painter, he received the Grand Federal Cross of Merit in 1971. In 1993, the German Federal Post Office issued a 100 pfennig commemorative stamp with the motif "Audience" in his honor as part of the "German Painting of the 20th Century" series. "I follow an urge and see it as my task to visualize and create what moves, depresses, worries or amuses me. 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).
