Franz Heinrich Gref wurde am 14. Dezember 1872 in St\u00fchlingen, Baden, geboren und verstarb am 17. September 1957 in Weilimdorf. Er war ein angesehener deutscher Maler, dessen Werke vor allem f\u00fcr ihre k\u00fcnstlerischen Gestaltungen in Kirchen und \u00f6ffentlichen Geb\u00e4uden bekannt sind.<\/p>\n
Sein k\u00fcnstlerisches Talent wurde fr\u00fch erkannt, und so studierte Gref an mehreren renommierten Institutionen, darunter der Akademie in M\u00fcnchen bei Christian Adam Landenberger und Moritz Weinholdt, der Kunstgewerbeschule Karlsruhe bei Ludwig Schmid-Reutte sowie der Stuttgarter Akademie bei Leopold von Kalckreuth und Robert von Haug.<\/p>\n
Besonders bekannt wurde Gref durch seine Zusammenarbeit mit dem Architekten Theodor Fischer, mit dem er k\u00fcnstlerische Gestaltungen f\u00fcr verschiedene Kirchen wie in Ludwigsburg-Eglosheim und Stuttgart realisierte. Er schuf Wandbilder f\u00fcr Kirchen in Neuneck und Winnenden, in der Garnisonskirche in Ulm sowie an \u00f6ffentlichen Orten wie der Markthalle in Stuttgart und den Realschulen in Kirchheim\/Teck und T\u00fcbingen.<\/p>\n
Ein herausragendes Werk von Gref sind seine vier gro\u00dfen Wandbilder von 1914 an der Markthalle in Stuttgart, welche B\u00e4uerinnen, Bauern und Winzer darstellen und bis heute erhalten sind. Diese Mineralfarbmalereien in Seccotechnik wurden zuletzt 2014\/15 restauriert.<\/p>\n
Trotz seiner Mitgliedschaft in der NSDAP von 1933 bis 1945 wurde Gref im Jahr 1952 mit dem Verdienstkreuz (Steckkreuz) der Bundesrepublik Deutschland ausgezeichnet.<\/p>\n
