1938ref. 9498New Jersey: Jacobi Studio 1938. Very Good. 5 X 7 Inches. SCARCE original headshot of Albert Einstein by Lotte Jacobi circa 1938. This iconic photograph of Einstein features him wearing his leather coat inside his Princeton New Jersey home. Scarce cropped photograph of Einstein's face with Jacobi Studio text in lower border. "Albert Einstein: A Photographic Study By Lotte Jacobi - Jacobi Studio 46 West 52nd Street New York 19 NY." Lotte Jacobi took this photograph of the theoretical physicist Albert Einstein at his home in Princeton New Jersey at the time he was a professor at the university. Both Jewish the two had been family friends a decade earlier in Germany. Einstein had renounced his German citizenship for political reasons after leaving Nazi Germany in 1933 and Jacobi had been forced to emigrate to the United States from Nazi Germany after she too renounced her German citizenship in 1935. Jacobi and Einstein collaborated on the crafting of his media image in a series of late-1930s Princeton portraits commissioned by Life magazine. Einstein agreed to sit for the photo session only if Lotte Jacobi was assigned to photograph him. The image of Einstein in a leather jacket is unusual in that it catches him in a less-guarded less-constructed moment than the others and offers the viewer a glimpse of the world-famous theoretical physicist as an individual rather than as a stereotyped professor. Rubbing and light wear at corners. A SCARCE advertising piece from the Jacobi Studio. Jacobi Studio unknown
ref. 77255Berlin Gerty Simon unpublished ca. 1935. Original photograph 21.3 x 17.8 cm on original cardboard mount 25.0 x 21.0 cm. = Gertrud "Gerty" Simon 1887-1970 was a German photographer who worked during the interwar period. "Born Gertrud Cohn in Bremen to a well-to-do Jewish family with her father being a lawyer she practiced in Berlin and later in London. She captured many important political and artistic figures in Weimar Berlin including singer and actress Lotte Lenya her husband composer Kurt Weill sculptor painter and print maker Käthe Kollwitz her colleague Max Liebermann and physicist Albert Einstein. Gerty Simon moved to Berlin after the First World War. Her husband Wilhelm like her father was a lawyer. They had one son Bernard Bernd born in 1921. Her Berlin studio was at Clausewitzstrasse. With the arrival of the Nazi Party in power in 1933 life became very difficult for Simon and her family. In 1933 her son's school the Landschulheim Herrlingen later the Bunce Court School a progressive boarding school transferred from Southern Germany to Otterden Kent. Simon followed while her husband remained in Berlin unable to continue as a lawyer and judge but finding work as a notary. The family was not reunited until 1939 and father and son were both imprisoned as enemy aliens. At 19 Bernard was even sent to an internment camp in Australia until 1942 despite having lived in the UK for seven years. Simon rapidly re-established her studio in Chelsea and portrayed many significant individuals there such as historian and broadcaster Sir Kenneth Clark actress Dame Peggy Ashcroft and politician Aneurin Bevan. She stopped working as a professional photographer from 1937 for unknown reasons" Wikipedia.

One of the lesser-known and very rare photographs of Einstein. Tiny chips to the left and upper edge and some surface damage to the outer right side; otherwise very good the impression fine and strong. A beautiful photograph.
