Alfred Helberger. (1871 Eberstadt - 1946 in Berlin) Grain Harvest Fauvist work by Helberger, created in 1932, from his mature oeuvre. For the artist, who had exhibited in renowned galleries (such as Gurlitt, Cassirer and Möller) and participated in the major Berlin art exhibitions, the "Third Reich" meant a profound caesura from 1933 onwards. As a modern painter, his works were condemned as "degenerate art", he was banned from his profession and was also subjected to reprisals due to his wife's Jewish ancestry.
