Indeed, the German artist, who was formerly known as
Andreas Hofer (in 2010 he adopted the anglicized name with which he's autographed his artworks since around 1999), has made a name for himself producing what might be called soiled modernism.
The Tirol Panorama with Kaiserjgermuseum, Bergisel Innsbruck (136,223 visitors) Opened in 1880, the original museum of the Tirolean Imperial Infantry (Kaiserjger) sits on the site of the famous battle in 1809, where local hero
Andreas Hofer and Tirolean freedom fighters defeated French and Bavarian troops fighting for Napoleon.

He celebrates the human face of great men, such as the Emperor Napoleon, remembering his debts to the fruit-woman of Brienne, or General Suvorov, having to be reminded to obey his own orders (again, how different from Kleist's Prince of Homburg!), or the Tsar and the King of Prussia, chatting on the seashore at Memel and mistaken by a stranger for ordinary folk; but
Andreas Hofer, the Tirolean freedom-fighter celebrated as a martyr by nineteenth-century liberals, he sees as a mere agitator, 'fishing in troubled waters'.
These contacts help to account for the large number of compositions by Salzburg composers, such as
Andreas Hofer, that are now known only in copies from the episcopal archives at Kromeriz, some of which were made by Vejvanovsky.
His dramatic works include Das Trauerspiel in Tyrol (1828; later revised and retitled
Andreas Hofer ); Merlin (1832); the trilogy Alexis (1832); and the comic epic Tulifantchen (1830), a witty parody of the decline of the nobility and of romantic chivalry.
