Three years later, at the insistence of his mother, he tried to enter the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, but failed. His work was considered mediocre. Soon the mother died too.

The second attempt to enter the academy was also unsuccessful, and Adolf, confident in his talent, blamed the teachers for everything. For some time he lived in Vienna with his friend August Kubichek, afterward left him, wandered, and then settled in a male hostel.

He drew small pictures with views of Vienna and sold them in cafes and taverns. During this period, Hitler often began to fall into tantrums. There, in taverns, he approached the radical circles of Vienna and became an ardent anti-Semite. He did not tolerate the Czechs, but he was convinced that Austria should join Germany.
