Carl Rabus

Carl Johann Rabus (May 30, 1898 – July 28, 1983) was a German expressionist artist and painter who was persecuted by the Nazis.

[3] Along with contemporaries including Jacob Steinhardt, Richard Janthur [de], Heinrich Richter-Berlin, and Conrad Felixmüller, Rabus "revived the techniques of woodcut and wood-engraving synonymous with the Die Brücke circle of artists and German Expressionism".

[4] Upon the Nazi takeover in Germany in 1933, Rabus moved to Vienna, Austria, where he met his wife-to-be, Jewish photographer Erna Adler.

Erna Adler was released but Rabus was incarcerated at the detention camp Saint-Cyprien in Southern France.

Eventually they settled down in Murnau am Staffelsee in 1974 where Carl Rabus died on July 28, 1983.
