CountLouis Raphaël Cahen d'Anvers (24 May 1837 – 20 December 1922) was a French banker.
Life and family
Born in 1837 as the son of Meyer Joseph Cahen d'Anvers and Clara Bischoffsheim (1810–1876), he was a scion of two wealthy Jewish banking families.[1] He married Louise de Morpurgo, who was from a wealthy Sephardi Jewish family from Trieste.
A third daughter, Irène (1872–1963), was the subject of a Renoir painting entitled Little Irène in 1880. Louis was so dissatisfied with the painting that he hung it in the servants' quarters and delayed payment of only 1500 francs.[4] Irène married Moïse de Camondo in 1891 and divorced in 1902. During the Nazi occupation of France, Irène survived by escaping to a villa in the south of France. Her daughter, Béatrice, was murdered in the Auschwitz concentration camp.[5]
