About Albert Lynch

Lived 1860 – 1950 (aged 89–90). Albert Lynch was a French painter and illustrator.

Albert Lynch (1860–1950) was a French painter of German and Peruvian ancestry.

Biography Alberto Fernando Lynch was born on 26 September 1860 in Gleisweiler, Kingdom of Prussia, and baptised there on 21 March 1861. His father, Diego Lynch, had been born in Chachapoyas, Peru in November 1812, the son of a family of merchants, and had moved to Paris in the late 1840s. His mother was Adele Bertha Emma Koeffler (born 1834 or 1835), the daughter of Thomas Koeffler, a German landscape painter who was working in Paris in the 1850s. The two had married in New York on 9 May 1852.

The family returned to Paris, where Albert Lynch subsequently studied at l'École des Beaux-Arts, under the guidance of painters Jules Achille Noël, Gabriel Ferrier and Henri Lehmann. He showed a portrait at the Paris Salon of 1879, and continued to exhibit there regularly until at least 1934. A date of birth of 1851, and date of death of 1912, have also become frequently presented. None of this is correct.
