About the Item

Oil on wood, signed lower left Bruno Wurster was born in Bern as the only child of Otto Wurster and Irmgard Wurster-Burri. The father was a businessman in a managerial position, the mother had studied piano at the conservatories in Bern and Dresden. The two of them ran an open house with a large circle of friends to which many artists, including Paul Klee and Lily Klee , and later their son Felix and his family, counted. Having developed polio at an early age , Bruno was only able to attend incomplete public schools; therefore his parents let him take private lessons and encouraged his talent for painting at an early age. In 1948 the parents bought a large house on Steinhölzliweg in Liebefeld near Bern, where they and their artist friends cultivated social life and a sense of the beautiful. The budding artist practiced various painting techniques in his own studio and began to present his works to the public in solo exhibitions as early as 1952/53.
