Peter J. Bahr was born in Shanghai, the son of Jürgen Bahr (1838–1903) and Marie Ling Wan Yin (1839–1913) and the brother of art dealer and collector Abel William Bahr (1877–1959). Somewhat in the shadow of his elder brother, Bahr worked for the merchants Hopkins, Dunn and Company before he became a dealer in Chinese art in Shanghai probably around 1909 or 1910. He supplied and corresponded with many collectors, including Charles Lang Freer, Berthold Laufer, and Osvald Siren. His address at 165a North Szechuan Road in Shanghai was known as the Peter J. Bahr Gallery of Antique Chinese Art. He died in China (Jujiang province) from tuberculosis in 1929.Stäng
