It’s quite obvious that Hitler is one of the most Hated personalities in modern history, and while the reasons for this are widely known, the man did have other hobbies apart from waging war and persecuting hundreds of thousands of people. Indeed, Hitler tried to get into the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts, and he was rejected on each occasion for failing his entrance examinations. Still, many years after his death, Hitler’s paintings could bring in quite a bit of cash during an auction that will take place in Nuremberg, Germany from June 19 to June 20.
The Weidler Auction house will put 14 of his watercolor paintings under the hammer, and these paintings are expected to raise quite a few thousand dollars. A particular representation of the Neuschwanstein Castle is expected to bring in $51,120 alone, and the lineup will also comprise paintings of buildings in Prague and Vienna as well as a nude drawing. Usually, those who decide to purchase Hitler’s artworks choose to remain anonymous for obvious reasons. Nonetheless, these paintings will surely find new homes in no time at all despite or perhaps due to their authors’ notoriety.
