Oskar Reinhart

Oskar Reinhart was a prominent Swiss art collector and patron, known for his extensive collection of European paintings, particularly those from the 19th and early 20th centuries. His collection includes works by renowned artists such as Picasso, Goya, and Van Gogh. Reinhart's contributions to the art world are significant, as he not only amassed a remarkable collection but also played a key role in promoting art appreciation in Switzerland. Recently, his collection has gained attention as 25 of his paintings were loaned to the Courtauld Gallery in London, marking a historic moment as it is the first time so many of his works have left Switzerland due to prior loan restrictions.
