Beschreibung
Born in Erbach, Hesse, Ludwig Walther began his training in the studio of Carl Haebler in Baden-Baden, where he became acquainted with Ferdinand Preiss. He joined Preiss-Kassler's studio in 1910 and quickly gained a reputation as the best ivory carver alongside Preiss himself. Following the outbreak of WWI, Walther began to work independently in Berlin. In 1929 he founded the Walther & Küchler studio together with his friend Louis Küchler, whom he knew from his time with Preiss. Around 1950, Ludwig Walther returned to Erbach, where he spent his retirement.
