EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Albert Buhrer, an enigmatic figure of the artistic world in the late 1920s. The photograph, taken around 1929, presents Buhrer in a relaxed and contemplative pose, with a cigarette delicately balanced between his fingers. His piercing gaze and furrowed brow suggest a deep concentration, as if he is lost in thought or in the midst of creating a masterpiece. Born in Switzerland in 1884, Buhrer was a self-taught artist who gained recognition for his expressive and emotional paintings. His works, which often featured portraits and landscapes, were characterized by their vivid colors and bold brushstrokes. Buhrer's art was deeply influenced by the Fauvist and Expressionist movements, and he was known for his innovative use of color and form. Despite his artistic success, Buhrer led a relatively quiet and reclusive life. He spent much of his time in his studio, surrounded by his paintings and his beloved cats. This portrait offers a rare glimpse into the personal side of this enigmatic artist, revealing a man who was both introspective and passionate about his craft. The photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Buhrer's art and his enduring legacy as a pioneering figure in the modern art movement. This image, from the August Prescott Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for any art lover or collector seeking to add a touch of sophistication and intrigue to their home or office decor.
