Adolf Lüben (1837 St. Petersburg – 1905 Munich) The Loaf of Bread A genre scene by Lüben, executed with fine brushwork and in a subtly nuanced, earthy color palette. Lüben began his artistic training in Berlin in 1853 and continued it in Antwerp starting in 1860. A young man standing in front of a neutral gray wall—identifiable as a coachman by his clothing—is just about to cut open a loaf of bread held in his arm. Subtle characterizations of ordinary people, such as craftsmen and laborers, are a recurring feature in the artist’s work. Initially active in Berlin, the genre painter settled in Munich in 1876. Oil on paper, mounted on canvas. Signed lower right; 34 cm x 21 cm. Framed. Oil on paper, mounted on canvas. Signed.
