Notes After first successes in Paris and Vienna, the Swiss painter Ferdinand Hodler became more and more popular in Germany as well and received significant orders. The "Gesellschaft der Kunstfreunde in Jena und Weimar" ("Society of Friends of Fine Arts in Jena and Weimar") placed an order for an anniversary gift for the Jena University in 1907. A wall painting was required to show the march of Jena students into the "Befreiungskriege" (liberation wars against Napoleon) in 1813. Hodler showed the students in the black uniforms of "Lützowsches Freikorps", the voluntary corps organized and commanded by Baron of Lützow. The painting was installed in the Auditorium of the Friedrich-Schiller-University in Jena in 1909.
