Albert Anker

Albert Samuel Anker was a Swiss painter, gesture painter and graphic artist.

Albert studied at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and exhibited his work at the Paris Salons, where he was awarded a gold medal in 1866. Anker painted many realistic portraits and genre scenes of ordinary Swiss life. In many of them he depicted children, including his own. Thanks to his paintings, Albert Anker was the most popular genre painter of 19th century Switzerland. He also decorated more than 500 earthenware plates for the Alsatian ceramicist Theodor Deck.

Anker was a member of the Grand Council of the Canton of Bern, initiated the creation of the city museum, and held the rank of officer of the Legion of Honor.
