Franz Windhager (1879 Vienna - 1959 Vienna) was a very well-known Viennese artist who was mainly active during the time between the two world wars. He had a reputation of having a great artistic sense and a lively character. He was interested in the bipolarity of the time between the wars, as well as different layers of the society he lived in. The latter interest served him with the nick-name "dialect-painter" (or jargon-painter) that his friends granted him with.
Franz Windhager studied at the Vienna Academy with Christian Griepenkerl and Franz Rumpler and from 1900 onwards at the Academy in Karlsruhe with Ludwig Schmid-Reutte. Numerous study trips took him through Germany and Italy. In 1909 he became a Member of the Vienna "Kuenstlerhaus". Windhager worked as a painter and illustrator. During the WWI , Windhager worked as a war painter in the Russian and Italian theater of war. In the post-war period, Windhager continued to work in Vienna, painting, among other things, building views.
