They lived together in an artists’ community, which also included Tischbein. Goethe supported Bury and introduced him to Duchess Anna Amalia. Bury’s oeuvre includes portraits of Goethe, Herder, Princess Auguste von Hessen-Kassel, Freiherr vom und zum Stein, and the kings of the Netherlands. The catalog of works shows Bury as a brilliant, many-faceted artist on the cusp between classicism and Romanticism who was widely acclaimed across Europe.
