Wilhelm Peter Bayer — Paintings, Biography & Famous Works

Wilhelm Peter Bayer is a Biedermeier artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at National Museum in Warsaw.

His 1861 *Study of a Tree* is still pinned to the wall of the local history museum, where visitors squint at it like they’re decoding a map.
