Hermann Armin Kern
Biography
Hermann 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.
