World exhibition of medals Paris 1925

In 1925, both art schools in Gröden took part in the International Exhibition in Paris. Albino Pitscheider, a master in carving small works of art and art teacher in Wolkenstein from 1910 to 1924 as well as from 1919 to 1940, was awarded a gold medal along with his colleague Lusi Insam. The octagonal medal shows an allegory of spring on one side, while it has a bouquet of flowers on the other side.
