Houston to Marfa 597 Miles. Artists Referenced: Hans Jürgen Press (with Robert Humpel / R. Hampel) at Fort D.A. Russell in Marfa, Texas.During World War II, Fort D.A. Russell (now part of Marfa) held German POWs, mostly from Erwin Rommel’s Afrika Korps. In 1944–1945, two of them—Hans Jürgen Press and Robert Humpel—painted large, colorful murals in Building 98 (the former officers’ club). They used house paint in a fresco-style technique on the walls, depicting:• Bavarian Alps-style landscapes with elk and mountains (evoking home).• West Texas scenes inspired by the Marfa area, including cowboys, chuck wagons, branding, prickly pear cactus, and mesas.These murals are preserved today and are a highlight of Building 98 (now an artists’ retreat and historic site open to visitors). They’re one of the best-known examples of German POW art in Texas.Other Texas camps (like Camp Bowie or Camp Swift) had some POW artwork too, but the Marfa Building 98 murals are the most famous and frequently referenced.Check out Donald Judd in this Texas Highways article: https://texashighways.com/culture/arts-entertainment/donald-judd/ About Stark Lane: We are best known for providing organizations with the leaders who make quality healthcare possible.
