Ostervald aîné

Also known as: Ostervald aîné; primary name: Ostervald aîné; other name: Osterwald aîné
Details: individual; publisher/printer; French; Male
Other dates: 1807-1842 (fl.)
Address: (Information from the Registers of the Dépôt Légal in Paris and the Bibliographie de la France) Rue de la Verrerie, n.14 (1811-14) rue du Pont-de-Lodi n.3 (1814-15) rue de la Parchminière n.2 (1815-18) rue Pavée-Saint-André-des-Arts n.5 (1819-1827) quai des Grands Augustins n.37 (1827-1833) rue Christine n.3 (1833-42)
Biography: Print publisher in Paris, specialising in modern historical prints.Listed as 'graveur et marchand d'stampes' in the Paris almanach for 1813. Probably the elder brother of 'Ostervald jeune' who was Jean Fréderick Ostervald (qv). His first name has not yet been found. The surname as found on the prints (though not always in the official papers) is spelled with a 'v', not with a 'w'. He must have remained closely associated with Ostervald jeune as both men ended up working with Rittner. The relationship was evidently complex and remains to be elucidated fully.
