He studied at the Académie Julian and the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris as well as in Madrid, Munich and Florence.It was in Italy where he was studying frescos and tempera paint that he met J. Sherlock Andrews of Rochester. Haushalter was deeply influenced by the Old Masters and church art, and had begun painting religious themes. Andrews saw Haushalter's work, was impressed by it, and commissioned the artist to paint a memorial to his mother in St. Andrew's Episcopal Church on Averill Avenue inRochester.Once in Rochester, Haushalter designed windows and altar decorations not only for Andrews, but for other influential Rochesterians as well. He married Clara Wilder, the descendant of A. Carter Wilder, Rochester's first mayor, and moved to West Avenue.He joined the Rochester Art Club and became a member of the American Watercolor Society. He continued to produce religious art for local churches and to sell his works to Rochester art patrons. In 1939 an exhibition of his early paintings was installed at the Brodhead Gallery in Rochester. Portraits, landscapes, and scenes of the marine coast, where he spent his summers, were included.Though there is no record of Haushalter children, the artist's interest in the young is evident in that he taught art classes to children at Iola, the county tuberculosis sanitorium, for more than ten years. Here he gave instructions in drawing and painting, often donating the art materials.Haushalter died at the age of 81 in Sodus Point. After his death, the Rochester Historical Society mounted a memorial exhibition of his work. Please view all the photos and if you have any questions please ask.
