Légende

The late Baron Meyer de Rothschild, 1874. 'We recorded the death of Baron Meyer Amschel de Rothschild last week. He was a younger brother of Baron Lionel de Rothschild, late M.P. for the city of London, and of Sir Anthony Rothschild, Bart, (also a Baron of the Austrian Empire), who was sometime M.P. for Aylesbury. Their father was Baron Nathan Meyer de Rothschild, of Frankfort, who was the founder of the great London banking house which is conducted by these brothers. The late Baron Meyer Amschel de Rothschild was in the fifty-sixth year of his age. He had sat in Parliament for Hythe since 1859. His country house at Mentmore, in Buckinghamshire, was famous for its collection of works of art. He was also an enterprising patron of horseracing, and won the Derby, the Oaks, and the St. Leger in the same year. We have engraved his portrait from a photograph by Messrs. Barraud and Jerrard, Gloucester-place, Portman-square'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
