Obach & Co

Also known as: Obach & Co; primary name: Obach & Co; other name: Obach, Charles
Details: individual; publisher/printer; dealer/auction house; British; Male
Other dates: 1868-1911 (active)
Address: 17 Southampton Street, Strand (1870) 20 Cockspur Street, London (1888-96) 168 New Bond Street (1909)
Biography: Charles Obach started dealing in old master prints in association with H G Gutekunst (perhaps acting as his London agent). He then became a director of Goupil in London before setting up Obach & Co in 1884 as a fine art dealer. Also a print publisher (from about 1887-1894). Later members of his staff were Gustavus Mayer and Harold Wright (from 1903). In 1911 he merged with Colnaghi to form P&D Colnaghi, but this merger was in effect a reverse take-over as Obach dominated the business.
