Background

“Singende Kinder” is an oil painting on canvas by Walter Clénin from 1922, in the music room (Singsaal) of the Schulhaus Laubegg at Laubeggstrasse 37 in Bern. Clénin was born in Tschugg in 1897, died in Ligerz in 1988, and was also a professor of visual art. Besides paintings, he made murals, mosaics and lithographs. In the early 20th century he was one of the most sought-after mural painters in Switzerland. In 1934 he painted murals for the Aula of the University of Bern.
