  Ernst Huber, Austrian graphic artist and landscape painter, completed an apprenticeship as a document. The autodidact was able to celebrate initial successes from 1919 when Josef Hoffmann saw his work in an exhibition in the palm house. Hoffmann brought Huber to the artist group of the artschau through the placement of the sculptor Gustinus Ambrosi. Here he came into contact with the already established artists Herbert Boeckl, Anton Faistauer, Oskar Kokoschka, Anton Kolig and Franz Wiegele. In 1920 Huber became a member of the special association and in 1932 the Vienna Secession. Huber was a member of the Zinkenbacker painter colony and maintained close friendships with Ferdinand Kitt, Franz Zuelow, Josef Dobrowsky, Georg Ehrlich and Georg Merkel. Ernst Huber's circle of friends has been part of Georg Merkel, Ferdinand Kitt, Ludwig Heinrich Jungnickel and Sergius Pauser since the beginning of the 1920s. His oeuvre dominate landscapes, especially from Lower Austria, Upper Austria and the Salzkammergut. Huber painted mainly in oil and watercolor, but he also created back glass and tiled paintings as well as numerous book illustrations. From 1932 he regularly loaded the Biennale in Venice. In 1935 he received the Austrian State Prize for Watercolor, in 1937 the honorary award of the city of Vienna. The professor title was awarded to him in 1949, followed in 1952 the honorary award for painting in the Kunstverein Salzburg. The examination of Pieter Bruegel's paintings of the older one leaded to a special preference for multi -figure scenes, for example in his 1930 image "ice skating pleasure".
