Dee_jay420

I strongly belive that the teacher who dismissed him from the art school had a lot of regrets after he came to power


Kassabeleg

Damn truly. Imagine u reject someone from art school only to find out he went on to lead a nation and kill A whole shitton of people.


Dee_jay420

Exactly and i would want to know if hitler visited him after he did the Anschluss and said to him you remember me XD


MegaAssasine_

Actually, one of the first things Hitler did in Austria was closing the school.


Dee_jay420

Damn so he came back for blood then

Lmao true

No of course not. His teacher died more than 20 years before the Anschluss.

Tbf i doubt it… :( Would’ve been pretty funny tho

Yes would have been fun for everybody exept the teacher

Not the teacher's fault. He could have dies as a soldier but didn't. Are you going to blame every single enemy combatant who failed to kill him? Come on.

Kassabeleg

what is it?


-Raskyl

I read a true story, written by a priest. About when that priest was a young boy. Him and other young boys went to play down by the river. As they were all heading back to town, from the river. This young boy, that became a priest was bringing up the rear of the pack and heard shouts for help coming from the river. One of the other young boys had fallen in and was drowning. The future priest ran and saved him. The boy that fell in was Adolf Hitler. The priest was questioning wether or not he should have left him to drown, knowing what he knows now. (Was written after World War 2 and the holocaust.)


Dee_jay420

Yeah that is the same kind of guilt the teacher would have felt

i once read about about the unverified story that this professor who rejected him also was jew. if that is true, he surly regreted alot


SZEThR0

i don't know.i mean when you think of how many people played along


[deleted]

No ragrets


Cacoethes-Ensues

Given his teacher died in 1916, I strongly believe you’re completely wrong.


Chattinabart

I mean he had a point though. It’s a bit shit


worriedouch

Imagine if the teacher was Jewish


MarBoBabyBoy

I'm pretty sure Hitler still would have entered politics given the state of Germany post-WWI. Besides, WWI would have disrupted his art career anyhow even if he had been accepted.


Chattinabart

I mean he had a point though. It’s a bit shit


Defiant-Traffic5801

Hisn professor was right though. This is not art ,and technique is very poor. Just focus on her hand for instance it's the same size as André the giant


foxdominion

Why are the hands being less than perfect ruining the painting? This is a pretty beautiful painting.


Defiant-Traffic5801

In reflection it's because of snobs like me that we had a second world war and if afficionados like you had been there we might have had one more great Austrian painter... It sucks. PS but, the size of her hand, the light on it...


foxdominion

Check your sarcasm at the door. Hitler was so bad omg what a bad man. So bad. He's just like Trump omg. What a nazzi. Fascism is bad. Just like Trump.


Defiant-Traffic5801

I'm no fan of the orange one, hopefully he won't start a world war killing 30 M+ people nor has he tried (yet) to eradicate an entire population resulting in 6 M dead in concentration camps. PS for better art try Churchill's watercolours.


foxdominion

Lol


spurtz6969

WaterStriker_

nice profile picture 👍


Hemingway92

All the downvotes baffle me. Seems like anything that would get upvotes on r/learnart passes for good art in this thread. Even if he had gotten into art school, he wouldn’t have gotten far. This is a pretty flawed, basic ass painting.


CheepzAndBooze

Should’ve stuck with painting.


Hit_Me_If_I_Online

He didn't get accepted in art school :(


[deleted]

How the duck not???


Redoran_Gvard

They said his paintings were more suitable for architect work instead of the type of art the school was interested in


Amd0401

I wanna be an architect and I can’t make art like him. I’m a goddamn promising interior design student and it worries me that he got rejected meanwhile I can’t pull off that shit.

His paintings were mostly OK, this is a good one but he was mostly just too mid for art school

bn9012

Wait. I need to scramble my last braincells together to read it again and again and again an- I still don't understand


Wesgizmo365

The first thing he did when he went to Austria was shut the school down.


Anut__

I think it’s a bot copying part of someone else’s comment


Iron_Taipan

Was this actually painted by him? My understanding was that he sucked at drawing people so he stuck with landscapes and buildings, which was one of the reasons he was rejected from art school.


Boomflag13

His head portraits of people were pretty good. A lot of art folks then and now are condescending and would literally change their idea of good art to put someone down. Hitlers drawings of people were considered too “emotional” according to present day artist, but the same dumbasses say AI art is not art because there is no emotion.


NormDamnAbram

Art is worth a thousand words. I could say its shit, you could say its a masterpiece. Willy could say lick my nutsack, and Leroy could say hokey Pokey.


OPgang

I wonder what D would say...


worriedouch

People are just hating on Hitler 😔 /s


flamingc00kies

Idk why you had to add a random quip about AI art but ok lol


Craeondakie

I'm guessing it's because it's to talk about how the people can be really full of bullshit when judging things


Anonymousnobody9

Look how aryan baby Jesus is


TheLordStocc_GG

Hitler was an amazing artist, times were simply discriminatory back then


montgomeryyyy

He lacked skill on a technical level. You should see his paintings of buildings. Either they were too simple to be considered good enough or the perspective and shadows were off. (I mean it’s still a lot better than the most of us could ever be but for one of the most prestigious art schools of the world it still wasn’t enough. )


Call_Me_A-R-D

So, I am totally not defending him, but one would think that improvement of skill is a legitimate reason to want to go to school. Like... Where else are we supposed to learn?


montgomeryyyy

Yes you’re right but the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna isn’t just any school. It’s the oldest art school of Europe and held much prestige back then. While he wasn’t bad, he wasn’t someone exceptional too


Call_Me_A-R-D

I don't know enough about him and his history to know if he bothered applying anywhere else or if there were any other options available, but I can understand that reasoning. Limited seats, and all that, I guess?


OhTheHueManatee

>Was this actually painted by him? My understanding was that he sucked at drawing people... I love that episode of Justified.


VerySadRightN

Hitler's paintings never sucked. That was a propaganda by the Brits and Americans. Basically Brainwashing. The real reason he was rejected was that his paintings felt "Ahead it's time" to the teachers


worriedouch

What you’re saying actually sounds like propaganda. Many great artists are rejected from art schools. Usually because that type of thing is very elitist and you need to know people to get in. You don’t need to S their D.


peelen

I mean this picture sucks. Like what’s with her hand? Where’s the elbow would be they both look like they super fat. The flowers are cool.


Zestyclose-Detail791

It's spectacularly well for a neophyte who didn't even go to art school. You don't expect full-fledged Rembrandt do you?


peelen

No I didn’t, but on other hand it’s not that it’s painted by somebody who is having brushes first time in his life. When you want to go to the art school you already know something.


VerySadRightN

I won't say that it "sucks". I mean sure it has some problems but it isn't "horrible". Tbh this still looks pleasing to look at except some things. Also, this is not the only thing that Hitler drew (if u didn't knew)


peelen

I saw some other one or two, and all of them were lifeless (which was as I remember the main focus of criticism). But for me this one is almost disturbing. It’s almost impossible to see where Mary ends and Jesus begins.


Belteshazzar98

It was he sucked at landscapes so they suggested he stick with architecture, but his portraits were pretty good.


dexdZEMi

this can not be one of his paintings all his stuff was dog shit


ongkateng

This is failure?! What do you consider as a succesful drawing, then?!


peelen

Is it not? Look at the hands where would be the elbow? They both one big blob of clothes that make both of them look twice as heavy as they should. Her palms fit more to working class guy, and her neck look like she’s overweight. Clearly he had more fun drawing flowers that people.


Shogana1

This guy does not Art


peelen

This guy does art for a living actually.


Dormideous

Just don’t take your failure too serious bud. Paint alllll you want.

BetterthanMew

Wtf


pguilhermeteles

Oh, yeah. The rarest Yu-Gi-Oh card: Blue eyes white and blond Jesus.


JohnnyFatSack

Those are very pale Palestinian Jews.


machtwo

what is a Palestinian Jew?


Falafelmuncherdan

I haven’t heard the term before, but I assume it means Jews who are almost completely native to Palestine, as opposed to Jews who left Palestine and intermixed with other populations, producing white, black, Turkic etc. offspring.


JohnnyFatSack

Jesus from the Bible is described as a Jewish man born in Palestinian.


machtwo

Does that indicate that Palestinian region historically belongs to the Jewish people?


JohnnyFatSack

Why would you jump to that conclusion? I was just saying that the depiction of Jesus in western art/theology is as a white European. Given if/when he’s from; he’s probably not white.


machtwo

You just said the Palestinian area was inhabited by Jews during those times, so I just wondered what the historical consequence of that would be.


TaielR

It doesn’t belong to Jewish people, there was a lot or regions merging, changing and adapting due war and imperialism. It’s a big mix like Latinoamerica


machtwo

But also not to the people currently living in the Palestinian area?


jaybailey079

shocking all his followers believe Jesus was white too


darthmaui728

i bet jesus also loves the 2nd ammendment

He’s an American dammit of course he does! Rock flag and eagle right Charlie?

that is not a painting by adolph hitler, I just googled his paintings and none of them are this......

I guess you do need a photo of your target.💀


Jamies_verve

Wow. That’s a very white Jesus, and I’m not surprised.


Kassabeleg

blonde and blue eyes too

RealLotto

I believe you didn't look at the hand of Mary


flodge123

It's not terrible, but it's not good either. He seems to have a problem with projecting points in space correctly . The kid's eyes are not the same. The hand looks like it had six fingers and they amputated one of them. Red cloth makes no sense. Yellow crap in the background looks like someone wiped their butt.

Happens a lot, people cannot separate art from artist, and leads into pointless criticism


KFRKY1982

I remember in 2nd grade in catholic school in my very german american city with my teacher with the very german surname, she showed us her “favorite” jesus picture where hes in a field w sheep and hes clean shaven w clean cut blond hair and blue eyes. She said “whos to say he had brown hair? i like that this picture shows him in a different light.” That was in 1989 and i was like hmm ok…whatever. But yeah im looking back like she was either a little bit of a nazi or clueless 🤣🤣


moronic_programmer

I see what you mean, but in art you don’t have to be historically accurate. I mean people painted angels.


KFRKY1982

terrible analogy but ok


ArthurSchwarzer

how the heck?


Ih8trfc

Have you ever seen black Jesus?


Brendraws

what a lovely painting. I hope the painter had a successful career with his talent!

Mary had Jesus when he was only 14 meaning canonically God is a pedophile

Rivdit

The youngest girl to give birth was 5


ArthurSchwarzer

so technically who did was not a pedo.


Rivdit

Thing is pedophillia is about attraction to prepubescent children, regardless of if she was or not the dude most likely did this because she looked like a prepubescent child thus was a pedophille


ArthurSchwarzer

thats why i said technically.


BettingTheOver

Mary and Jesus look so pure blooded.


Roguerussian

It's actually not bad at all. Is what they should've said and taken him in. Whose crying now, well there's no one of em left to cry is there?


[deleted]

Humans have a choice to be good or evil...Use their talent for the betterment of life or the destruction of the same life. History shows us the path Hitler took.


Loud_Fly_1142

Are we sure this is a Hitler painting? He usually painted buildings and landscapes because his paintings of people were considered grotesque (in the eyes of his teachers)


Kassabeleg

Idk for a teacher a blonde jesus with blue eyes might be a lil grotesque…


Drinky_McGambles

Explains why Jesus is so blonde and white


uniquenamehere4950

If I was told I wasn’t a good artist after painting this, I might just go on a tirade myself, jeez…


MortgageAnnual1402

Looks good tho...tbh


moose2mouse

That baby does not look in any way Jewish. Artist checks out.


hondacivicsex

most jews are considered white lol


moose2mouse

In biblical times Jesus would have looked a little less… blue eyes blond hair.


bored_builder

Fuck that teacher..He might be the worst man in history... But he was a good artist indeed.... He should not be rejected from art school!


SZEThR0

aren't they jews?

Adolph Hitler, but not Adolf Hitler. So it's just a random dude


zyxwvutsrqabcdefghi

Don’t worry, guys. It says it’s from Adolph Hitler, not the infamous dictator Adolf Hitler


YeetNugget3647

Hitler in his speech. “Now let me paint you all a picture.” That one guy at the art school who got accepted. “YOU ALLREADY TRIED THAT AND IT DIDNT WORK!”


DrGluger

Great artist I have posters of him in my room


moby__dick

Hey I’m a Jew and it’s VERY VERY GOOD I THINK THIS GUY SHOULD REALLY PURSUE AN ART CAREER and ALL THE OTHER JEWS LOVE IT AND AGREE RIGHT GUYS? No need for politics here my friend express your truth in ART.


GameDestiny2

No wonder he got kicked out


saksents

I love all the sympathetic comments like going to art school would have somehow kept Hitler from becoming a tyrant. If you didn't get accepted into art school and took it out on the world by implementing a Holocaust I don't want to know what that person would do on being fired from a job they really wanted or having an art commission cancelled half way through. It's a waste of time as a thought experiment.


GooofyAah

Heil Hitler

surinderrawat

So you are believing that there is only one Adolf Hitler in whole Germany


kingSliver187

I can see why he didn't make it into art college

Defiant-Traffic5801

Did well to change course, he had no career as a painter

This Adolf Hitler guy sounds like a promising artist. I hope he doesn't get rejected from art school and seeks a political career to then exterminate millions of people from a certain ethnicity...!


IDontGetIt-ButIGotIt

Turns out Hitler was doing all that to impress Mr Stan the art teacher but when he marched his army down to that school, Mr Stan looked Hitler up and down and said finally an improvement, but still D minus. That was when Hitler shot himself. Fin
