"Lesender Bauer" (translated as "Reading Farmer") is a notable painting by the Swiss artist Albert Anker, who is often referred to as the "national painter" of Switzerland. Anker, born in 1831 and passing in 1910, is renowned for his detailed and empathetic depictions of rural life, capturing the essence of 19th-century Swiss peasantry with a profound sense of realism and humanity.

The painting "Lesender Bauer" exemplifies Anker's commitment to portraying the everyday lives of ordinary people. It features a farmer engrossed in reading, a subject that underscores the artist's interest in the intellectual and cultural lives of rural inhabitants. The farmer is depicted with meticulous attention to detail, from the texture of his clothing to the expression on his face, which conveys a deep sense of concentration and engagement with the text.

Anker's work is characterized by its warm, earthy color palette and the use of natural light, which imbues the scene with a sense of tranquility and introspection. The setting is typically modest, reflecting the simplicity and humility of rural life. Through this painting, Anker not only highlights the dignity and worth of the peasant class but also challenges contemporary stereotypes by presenting the farmer as a thoughtful and literate individual.

His works are celebrated for their technical precision, compositional harmony, and the compassionate portrayal of his subjects.
