German-born photographer Lotte Jacobi immigrated to America in the 1930s to escape Nazi persecution. Jacobi, known for both her portraits and abstract images, frequently signed her photo postcards. "In addition to the public holdings of her work, private collectors benefited from her practice of making original, signed photographic postcards of her work. She used these prints as an expression of friendship and was perhaps inspired by the Stieglitz use of postcard prints for his series of cloud pictures, the Equivalents."
