San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. “August Sander.” Artist page in the SFMOMA collection. Accessed 2026-05-09. https://www.sfmoma.org/artist/August_Sander/
Tier justification
Tier 1: institutional / archival page from a major museum’s curated artist directory. SFMOMA’s collection records carry the institution’s curatorial editorial standards. Used here to corroborate the year-of-birth, year-of-death, place tokens, and nationality independently of ICP.
Key excerpts / pages
Verbatim from the fetched HTML (2026-05-09; the artist-bio panel renders these as a clean three-line block):
- Nationality: “German”
- Life info: “1876, Herdorf, Germany” and “1964, Cologne, Germany”
Notes
- Perspective: institutional / archival.
- The SFMOMA page corroborates Sander’s 1876 / 1964 year-tokens and the Herdorf / Cologne place tokens at Tier 1, providing a second anchor independent of src-icp-august-sander-archive (which gives year-only resolution and the Herdorf-am-der-Sieg form of the birthplace token).
- The page does NOT mention The Family of Man by name (verified 2026-05-09 against the fetched HTML by string-search). The connection is made via the MoMA Master Checklist (src-moma-exh-0569-master-checklist, in repo) at the plate level.
