Wilhelm Höffert

Whether Höffert had in fact subsequently spent time as a photographer in Warsaw and Russia, as his mother had assumed, is not known.

[4] In 1860, he entered into a business partnership with the photographer and painter Moritz Unna in Gothenburg.

The joint company traded as Unna & Höfferts Fotografiska Atelier with the address Södra Hamngatan 41.

[citation needed] In 1863, the partnership was dissolved and Unna went to Copenhagen, where he bought the photographic studio of Rudolph Striegler.

Höffert presumably returned to Germany in the same year and opened a photographic studio in Dresden under his name.

Only the photographer Georg Brokesch called himself managing director of the Leipzig studio from 1872 to 1875.

[olger], for example in Leipzig the photographers E. & M. Foerstner (or Förstner) initially at Schloßgasse 1/corner of Petersbrücke, from 1906 to 1907 at the address Barfußgasse 15, in Düsseldorf[42] and in Hamburg Johann Kagel from 1903 to 1906. in "Alstertor 14/16".

[43] The address book of the city of Bonn in 1903 verzeichnet den Fotografen Ferd[inand] Bauer in der Coblenzerstr.

[45] In 1894/95, the later successful photographer Hugo Erfurth completed a one-year apprenticeship at Höffert's.
