Exemplary 7.75 x 10 drypoint etching of Albert Einstein in a forward-facing pose, perfectly capturing the visage of the world's most illustrious scientific researcher, signed in the lower border in fountain pen by the subject, "Albert Einstein," and also signed in pencil by the artist, "I. J. Muller." The etching also carries the artist's facsimile monogram inherent to the print. In fine condition. An ideal Einstein portrait, crisply signed by the Nobel laureate.
Isadore Joseph Muller (1876–1943) was born in Budapest and studied at the Munich Royal Academy. In 1924, he emigrated to America, where he opened a studio near NYC's Central Park and created numerous portraits, including those of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Wiley Post, Ignacy Jan Paderewski, and Albert Einstein.
