The exhibition presents a small selection of these photographs and sheds light on his artistic contacts and cultural interests of this time. Portraits of artist colleagues, such as Gotthard Huehl, who taught Hegenbarth as a master student at the Dresden Academy of Arts, of Oskar Zwintscher or of Hans Thoma are among the depicted, just as portraits of actresses and dancers, such as of the sisters Wiesenthal. Made in elaborate technical methods as the oil print or offset, the photos were mounted on precious Japanese paper and on coloured cardboard and were stored in a custom-made box.
