Summary:

His artistic work has been recognized through numerous awards, he received, among others, the 1921 Dürer Award of the City of Nuremberg and 1928 the industrial price of the city Düsseldorf.

His oeuvre from the 1920s focused mainly on landscape motifs in black and white. These early works are mostly the style of the Rhenish Expressionism, with aspects of Cubism, assigned. In the course of his work de Haer favored still lifes and nudes, characterized by delicate colors. During the outgoing 1930s and 1940s, much of his work was in de Haers’s then residence Kaiserswerth. Also at that time, interest in his work was strong and the artist participated in numerous prestigious exhibitions.
