Stefan Jäger
Painting, Visual Artist
1877 – 1962
Who was Stefan Jäger?
Stefan Jäger was a painter known for his depiction of and deep identification with the Danube Swabian community to which he belonged.
There are some grounds for categorising him as a Hungarian painter - since in the first half of his life he lived in what was part of Hungary, and some of his early career was spent in Budapest under the influence of Hungarian painters; a Romanian painter - since in the second half of his life his home region was part of Romania, and his contribution to Romanian culture was recognised by the government through awards in his lifetime and the maintenance of his home as museum up to the present; and a German painter - since, though he never lived in Germany, his identity as an ethnic German played a central part in his life and his artistic work.
