Gertrud Rohrer

Gertrud Rohrer was born in Buchs (St Gallen) in 1889 and grew up in Bern. She trained as a drawing teacher at the Kunstgewerbeschule [school of arts and crafts] in Bern. This was followed by stays at the art academies of Paris and Munich, and in Italy. In 1944 she moved with her sister, the violinist Lilly Tschanz, to Beatenberg, which became her adopted home. She was a member of the Vereinigung Schweizerischer Malerinnen und Bildhauerinnen [Association of Swiss Women Painters and Sculptors]. She also gave courses in splint-box painting in the Frutigtal valley. In addition to painting, she was organist at the church in Beatenberg until a ripe old age. She died in Unterseen in 1970.
