Diétrich and C° (after 1881)
The Etching Enthusiasts
Biography
Art dealer in Brussels. Shortly thereafter, Dietrich also became a publisher and dealer in prints, postcards, and reproductions, soon expanding his business internationally. In addition to Brouet, whom he was one of the first to publish, Dietrich took a particular interest in Henri Meunier and Henri Cassiers.
His obituary in the Börsenblatt für den deutschen Buchhandel (February 8, 1924) credits him in particular with the discovery of Brouet.
