Barrére Wind Orchestra 1928

Max Weber's 1928 lithograph *Barrére Wind Orchestra* depicts a conductor leading a group of musicians, likely during a performance. The artist utilizes expressive, gestural lines and a dark, shadowy palette to create a sense of energy and movement within the composition. This depiction of musicians in a performance setting is characteristic of Weber's work, which often reflects his interest in capturing the dynamism and emotion of human experience. The artwork's title and inscription suggest a personal connection between Weber and the musician Henry Barrére, highlighting the artist's interest in both artistic and social relationships.
