A connoisseur of people and character painter.
“That’s one!”, wrote the art critic Prof. Dr. EW Bredt and thus perfectly conveys the impression that one must have received involuntarily from the painter Hermann Groeber. He was a robust, genuine Bavarian who always said what he meant. “It's not rough, it's - bigger!” joked his academy students, among whom he was nevertheless extremely popular. After all, he was one of them, a learner among learners who did not stop at stupid theory. The academy festivals of the Groeber class were legendary.
Groeber received the teaching assignment at the academy in 1911 after he had won the gold medal at the Glass Palace Exhibition. Much is known about the extraordinary talent of the artist, who was born in Wartenberg in 1865. If the name Groeber is mentioned, contemporary critics immediately draw comparisons with old masters such as Vermeer, Rembrandt or Dürer. The Chiemgauer is in an undeniably closer relationship with the artist icon of the time, Wilhelm Leibl, as he "prefers more and more the sharply outlined color surface, which is closely related to the linear structure of Wilhelm Leibl's late pictorial art". It is his portraits and group portraits that form the foundation of his fame and that distinguish him as a connoisseur and character painter. The art of drawing, which is mostly hidden in the shadows of painting, but does not require less skill, was particularly close to the heart of the Chiemgau resident . Since 1899 he has had his own drawing school in Munich. With a special eye for the detail, but also the composition and the anatomical laws, he takes the viewer into the rural world he loves. “Here you can sometimes see laid out with Dürer's delicacy, leaf panicles and tree trunks, farmhouses and faces, animal studies and workers' heads; nothing was alien to the world and the pen of Hermann Groeber.

After his death in Munich in 1935, Hermann Groeber was buried in Gstadt am Chiemsee.
