Ah, I love the work of ‘A.Shittery’. Genius with a brush.

Some time traveller fuc**d up a painter & caused a world war

I lol'd when I saw the stick figure. You did great in paint.
PDXDragon
Brilliant! I particularly like the right eye.

The most beautiful place in Vienna. Made me happy whenever I was going into the office... In the before time

The stick guy is good.

Amazing how much different people looked back then, really makes you think.

The stick figure though.

He wasn't really good with composition and proportion. That building is all lopsided.
cAPTNcAPSLOCK
A.H. definitely had some skill - more than I have, and I paint too - but his sujets were so last century and that's why he was shunned. /1
cAPTNcAPSLOCK
He painted this when Impressionism was already like 50 years old. Actual artists were avant garde and he was everything but. /2
megazord666
This approach, esp. considering the avant-garde work evolving around him, was telling of his extreme conservative nationalist values
hippy80
As usual with a HItler painting, the goddamn perspective is off. Maybe that should have been a clue for later???

To the Louvre!
mrputter
That seems to have been the artist's plan. Took him about 28 more years.

Original art is by Alec Garrard. OP is a

am wrong about the artist but not about OP

very low level paint skills, where the dick&balls?

Can I screenshot it and sell it as NFT?

No
Vilgashem
He was alright. He wasn’t shit, but he was probably compared to the likes of Matisse and Monet. Kirchner was big at the time. He probably
Vilgashem
seemed average and uninspired. There was a reason he demanded, among other things, the burning of art. It wasn’t subversive. It was spite.
Vilgashem
Just so it’s clear why I think it’s simply edgy and disgusting that people point out that a murderous degenerate was a competent artist.
Gaelwyn
People are complex, even the trash ones.
SirMisterDudeBroPhD
What was your struggle or Kampf like when locked in deep concentration on this?
SirMisterDudeBroPhD
Also to be more clear: Hitler painted this. And Karl Luger was fucking insane also.

Karlskirche in Vienna?
HelloBycicle
yes! looks like karlskirche!
weathered
Looks like it yes
omg17
Been there. Remarkable church
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
It's by a pretty famous painter, though he's known more for being the guy who killed Hitler than for his paintings.
themscatherine
I used to live across the street from the house he lived in Vienna, only found out when I moved lol
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
Oh yeah, there are a bunch of those around Germany and Austria, right? And the governments are always looking for ways to make them 1/
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
not turn into shrines for lunatics to make pilgrimages.
themscatherine
It's not hard to find out about this one (research or a person who remembers) , but I think (or hope) generally people don't bother
TheInitiated
This is a clear copyright infringement and I'll be informing the artist or their family.
jemappelletosca
I actually knew a Hitler in college. Was surprised she didn’t change her last name.
Fishlullabies
I wonder how long it will be until Hitler is an appropriate name to have. Or just Adolf.
TheInitiated
In Germany? Most likely never. In the US? Well...
TheInitiated
Fun fact: I hiked in the Austrian mountains with a Bergführer (mountain guide) named Adolf. As close to a German walkabout as you can get.
TheInitiated
...making me one of the few living Germans who can point at an actual photograph and say "Und das bin ich mit Adolf, meinem Führer."
Fishlullabies
Haha that sentence has not been used recently by anyone else
Keres04
Welp... wasn't expecting that when I checked the artist's signature...
4vie
.... I know he got rejected for painting "poorly", but the motivation escapes me, especially when seeing this one. ... why was he rejected?

So you could say that you did Nazi that coming, eh?
IMustGrowUpReally
It says 'A Hitler'... might not be 'The Hitler'? /s

If only more people had bought his stuff back when he was doing postcards. Support an artist near you, people!

Small communities in general. 9 families sharing 5 surnames, incest valley.

And he hadn't been traumatised by world war 1 trench warfare.
spengler
He was the war equivalent of a water boy.
OhNoDontTouch
and therefore witnessed the horrors of trench warfare?
redstick
He won the Iron Cross, and he was wounded in battle.
zvae
in paint? as in microsoft paint? or "with" paint, as in, painted on a canvas?
MadOatmeal
He was probably covered in paint as he added the stickfigure.
Swoogeeh
They paid Hitler to do it in MS Paint for them, obviously.
Rogerwilco1974
Yes!
WhatisaYute
Also, the signature on the painting is worth a peek.
zvae
this guy's name is hitler too? what a weird coincidence!
lilyBaroness
Ahhh!
spitfires2000
I think, but I might be wrong here, OP is talking about the stick figure next to the single guy with the walking cane.
zvae
you know, i didn't even notice. lmao well played
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
The original artist's signature is in the corner. You may have heard of him.
zvae
amazing. one of my faves
theeighthcolour
A Hitler, but which one?
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
The one who killed Hitler.
