Philip Lehman

Philip Lehman (November 9, 1861 – March 21, 1947) was an American investment banker.

Emanuel was a co-founder of the now-defunct investment bank, Lehman Brothers.

[1] Lehman was notable as one of the first financiers to recognize the potential of issuing stock as a way for new companies to raise capital.

[4] Lehman began collecting major artworks in 1911, the bulk of which he willed to his son Robert.

His collection today forms part of the exhibition in the Robert Lehman Wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
