Stereoview - Ohio River Bridge from Louisville, KY side... Part of a series on Louisville by E. Klauber; came to Louisville, Kentucky in1853 Buried in The Temple Cemetery.....AS PER MEMORIAL BY CONG. ADATH ISRAEL HE WAS A TRUSTEE; MORE THAN FIVE DECADES Edward Klauber was a photographer for many years in Louisville. The first instance I could find was for his shop located on 403 Main in 1864. In 1868 he moved to 58 W. Market, and remained there through 1870. 1871-1883 his shop was at Third Street at the NE Corner of Jefferson Street. In 1884 he moved to 332 Fourth Street and remained there through at least 1907. Edward Klauber was considered by many to be one of the best photographers of his time. He came from Bohemia at the age of eighteen. His ‘large and elegant studio was compared to the studio of Matthew Brady in New York City. The studio was lavishly furnished. Stage personalities like Mary Anderson enjoyed having portraits done by Klauber when they were in Louisville performing at the Macauley Theatre. Klauber’s studio closed in 1913 and he died in 1918.
