Actually, he did draw people. He just wasn't any good at it.

I've seen some caricatures, including himself, that Hitler did of his unit marching west in 1914. They aren't bad, and are quite humorous. What flunked him on his art school admission test was the lack of proportion of human figures in his cityscapes, and the poor quality of his renditions of humans.

Hitler's ancestors came from an area in Austria on the Czech border called the Waldviertal, so his antecedents are hard to trace.The ancestral name may have been Huettler. As for his putative homosexuality, Hitler has been accused of every sexual perversion in the book, and some outside the book (Funny, Stalin never was). At least three or four women committed suicide over Hitler, and accounts from his Munich days suggest he had some success with women

He made a student's living painting postcards. Some talent, but did not get into art school. Had a lifelong interest in architecture, especially design of bunkers.
