Adolf Ziegler
|
Adolf Ziegler was a Nazi painter and propagandist, widely regarded as Hitler's Favorite Painter.
Ziegler was a painter that always admired artist's works, studying dilligently at the Academy of Arts Munich. He was later admired by Adolf Hitler for his "racially pure" works, and was tasked to be a propagandist for the Nazi Party.
However, Ziegler eventually expressed remorse for his association with Hitler's ulterior motives. Hitler ordered Ziegler to be imprisoned in the Dachau concentration camp for questioning his motives. He was imprisoned for six weeks. However, Hitler eventually ordered him to be released afterward. Unfortunately, because of his association with the Nazi Party, Ziegler's career was completely tainted, and he was unable to revive his career as an artist. He later died on September 11, 1959.
