Hugo Scheiber (1873-1950) was a Hungarian painter of Jewish origin. Self-taught, he was initially inspired by Impressionism before evolving towards Expressionism. His style can be defined as urban and colorful. Influenced by the European avant-garde and Art Deco, he reflected the effervescence of modern life, particularly through portraits, dynamic scenes, and abstract compositions expressing intense emotions.
