Solomon Loeb.

Etching, 1897. 237x157 mm; 9 3/8x6 1/8. inches, full margins. Signed in pencil, lower right.

Loeb (1828-1903) was a textile merchant and New York financier. Born in Germany, he moved to Cincinnati in the mid-19th century and came to New York in 1865. He was a partner at Kuhn, Loeb & Co., the bank where he amassed most of his fortune. A superb impression of this extremely scarce etching.
We have not found another impression at auction in the past 20 years. Asplund 115.
