The following year, he married Anne Nitzsch, the daughter of a Senator from Berlin, and settled in Möltenort, near Heikendorf.[2] From there, he made study trips to Copenhagen and Norway. Together with Fritz Stoltenberg, he established an art school in 1905. He was awarded the Villa Romana Prize in 1907, and stayed in Florence for a year.[3]
From 1912 to 1930, he was a teacher at the Kunstakademie Kassel, and received the title of Professor in 1917. His best known student from this period was the landscape painter, Sepp Vees [de].[4] After 1930, he returned to Möltenort and was active at the Heikendorf Atists' Colony [de].
