About
Why this artist matters now
Alois Löcherer was a Bavarian daguerreotypist and albumen printer active during photography's formative decades. Working in Munich from the 1840s onward, he produced portrait studies and architectural documentation that exemplify the technical refinement and formal restraint of early photographic practice. His work is situated within the foundational period of the medium, when chemical process and optical precision defined aesthetic possibility.
