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.
