CHARLES LAINER
Page 366
CHARLES LAINER was born in Austria, in 1857, and was reared and educated in his native land, attending school in Vienna and other places in Europe, where he also pursued the study of art. He came to the United States, spent some time in Philadelphia and Cincinnati, and in 1882 came to San Francisco and established his present business on Third street. For the past nine years he has successfully conducted this gallery, his business from the first continuing to increase. In 1884 he opened his art rooms on Market street, No. 715, and here his facilities are very complete for doing the finest work. While doing all kinds of art photography, he makes a specialty of fine crayon portraits. The high standard of his work has gained for him an excellent reputation, and in proof of this we state that he has been the recipient of seven first prizes at competitive exhibitions.
