About the Item

A contented musician taking a quick break from his playing to enjoy a quiet glass of wine in the cellar. This painting on panel by Austrian Hermann Armin Kern is signed in the lower left and features one of the artist's favorite characters. The piece measures 20.75" x 14.5" including the frame. Hermann Armin Kern was a painter of portraits and genre subjects. He was born in 1839.Kern made his debut in Vienna in 1880; he also exhibited in Munich. Paintings by the artist can be found in many European collections.Golden old age was fertile subject matter for Hermann Kern. He developed the genre to a high pitch of detail and finish, with scenes of old men in interiors, pottering about in a clutter of jumble. He created that highly prized mood of cosiness tinged with nostalgia.
