About the piece
Painted in 1905, this portrait of Alfred von Berger exemplifies Max Liebermann's mastery of the German Impressionist style. The work is defined by its bold, vigorous brushwork and the dramatic contrast between the luminous white waistcoat and the deep, textured values of the sitter's suit, creating a modern and energetic take on traditional portraiture.
