Albert Jaegers
Albert Jaegers, a man who has taught himself his art, having fine powers of observation and much invention, was born at Elberfeld, Germany, in 1868. He has been an indefatigable worker, holding his art above all else. Solving technical problems by himself, studying the world around him with an intense love in all his undertakings, Albert Jaegers has come to be a power among his fellows. He has exhibited at several Expositions, has done considerable municipal work - the finest figure probably being his “Baron Steuben,” of Washington - and many fine portraits. His “Uncle Joe Cannon” in the Fine Arts Palace, shows his power as a portraitist. His work has brought him decorations from the German Emperor.
