A rare collection of early artworks by Adolf Hitler, painted around 1908 when the Nazi dictator was a struggling artist, are to go under the hammer on the 30th of September. The Daily Telegraph of London reports, the selection of watercolours, which depict views across the vast areas of farmland with a distant church spire on the road, village scenes and rows of factories, could fetch 150,000 pounds at the auction. The paintings have come to light after they were found within a large estate in Austria's north by an unnamed lawyer who bought the property.Richard Westwood-Brookes of Mullocks Auctions said the Fuhrer would paint night landscapes for tourists to try and earn a living. His daily activity was to go out and paint — he was penniless. Hitler tried to get into an academy in Vienna to pursue a career as a professional artist, but had two applications turned down.
