"Harry Graf Kessler" is a lithographic portrait created by the renowned Norwegian artist Edvard Munch in 1906. The subject of the portrait, Count Harry Kessler (1868–1937), was a German art patron, writer, and diplomat, known for his significant contributions to the arts and his support of avant-garde artists during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Munch's portrayal of Kessler is one of the many testaments to the count's influential role in the European cultural scene of the time.

The lithograph features Kessler in a half-length profile, capturing the essence of his personality and his status as a sophisticated intellectual. Munch's use of bold lines and contrasting shades in the lithograph emphasizes the count's distinguished features and reflects the artist's expressionist style, which sought to convey emotional experience rather than physical reality.

Edvard Munch met Harry Kessler in Berlin, where Munch was involved with the Berlin Secession, a group that aimed to innovate German art away from its traditional academic constraints. Kessler's support for Munch's work was pivotal during this period, and their mutual respect is evident in the care Munch took with the portrait.

The "Harry Graf Kessler" lithograph is not only a significant work of art due to its creator but also because it immortalizes a figure who played a crucial role in the development of modern art in Europe. The portrait remains an important piece in understanding the network of artists and patrons that contributed to the flourishing of European modernism and the expressionist movement in particular.

This lithograph is part of several art collections and has been displayed in various exhibitions focusing on Munch's graphic works and the cultural milieu of the early 20th century. It continues to be studied by art historians and enthusiasts who are interested in the intersection of art and cultural history during this dynamic period.
