I don't see anything in that ebay listing identifying who the subject is, which I thought was the OP's question. H. Kautsch appears to be the artist, and the dates aren't bringing up anything for me.

Sorry Circus. That French-English link didn't bring me anywhere. Quote:I don't see anything in that ebay listing identifying who the subject is, which I thought was the OP's question. H. Kautsch appears to be the artist, and the dates aren't bringing up anything for me. Yeah. I agree. Just another example of the same Unidentified thing. I didn't read it thoroughly.

Here is the cut and paste from the page Hugo Finaly, born July 3, 1844 in Budapest and died in 1915, is a French banker, administrator of the Bank of Paris and the Netherlands. Married to Jenny Ellenberger, he is the cousin of Baron Horace de Landau and the father of banker Horace Finaly. He came to France early in 1880 and joined the financial community through Horace de Landau, a Rothschild bank attorney. He became naturalized French him and his family on August 28, 1890. First director director of the Bank deposits and depreciation (born from the merger of the French and Italian Bank and the Bank of Paris discount in 1880), until his disappearance due to the financial crisis of 1882, he participated in the creation of the Pacific Financial and Commercial Company and the activities of several industrial and commercial companies: French metal company, French trading company in Chile, French company for drilling and mining research, Banca commercial italiana. He brought his son Horace Finaly to the Bank of Paris and the Netherlands in April 1900 before he became general manager in 1919. He was the owner of the Villa Finaly in Florence, bequeathed by his heirs to the Chancellery of the University of Paris in 1956. He is buried in the Père-Lachaise cemetery (93e division).

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
