Henry Breuer was born in Philadelphia in 1860. His first art instruction came in the 1870’s in Buffalo, New York, and between 1880-1882 he worked at the Rookwood Pottery Company in Cincinnati, Ohio. While at Rookwood, Breuer took advantages of classes that were available to him. Following a 10-year stay in San Francisco, Breuer traveled to Paris for study. Upon his return to U.S., Breuer embarked on a painting expedition that took him up and down the coasts of Oregon and California. Henry Breuer exhibited extensively, often to great acclaim. He was awarded a gold medal for his entry in the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exhibition in San Francisco.
