    Hi,

    I need more information about the painter (Maler)

    Hans (Friedrich Georg Hans) von Heider

    born 7.1.1867 in Munich

    died: 11.4.52 in Blaubeuren (near Ulm)

    I know, that he was bavarian Olt. (or later Hauptmann) d.L. (d.R.)

    He got

    -IC 2nd class

    -Wilhelmscross with X

    -Wuerttemberg small medal for art & science

    -Friedrichsorder knight 1st class without X

    -bavarian LDA2

    Are there more infos about him? I do not have the book of Klein/Raff.

    Espec. i would like to know, when he got his medal for art & science - in 1915/16 he was regimental painter of IR 125

     

    THANKS.

    Hi,

    as he worked at the Stuttgarter Kunstgewerbeschule after WW2 (died 1952) there should be a personal file on him  in the State Archive of Baden-Württemberg or the Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste Stuttgart.

    Hi, thanks for the infos.

    Here my pic.

    I am nearly sure, that he wears his art & science on ribbon of the crown order.

    Can somebody help to ID the version of the helmet - it is with mimikri tarn (?).
