| Albert Herter was born in New York in 1871, where he studied at the Art Students League before leaving for Paris for further instruction. Upon his return to the states, Herter moved to Chicago, teaching at the Art Institute. Herter is best known for his delicate mixed-media portraits, which often featured women from the wealthy families of New York. He also headed the Herter Looms, a firm specializing in elegant textiles and tapestries. A successful artist and businessman, Herter divided his time between Long Island and Santa Barbara, California, where he died in 1950.
