Life

Carl Solling was an uncle of the later scholar Erwin Panofsky from a wealthy Jewish family in Hanover and a personal friend of the "all-powerful" later Hanover city director Heinrich Tramm .

According to the commercial register at the district court of Hanover , Number HRA 15075 , Carl Solling opened as the main owner on 12 March 1886, the company Carl Solling & Co. , which, however, from the beginning, another in a series of Hanoverian private banks stood such as the later Wilhelm Basse founded Bankhaus Bass .

One of the oldest surviving documents from the bilateral relations between Mexico and Hanover since the signing of the friendship treaty of June 20, 1827 between the then Republic of Mexico and the Kingdom of Hanover dates from the founding of the German Empire : According to a file dated November 20, 1890, the then requested Upper President of the - now Prussian - Province of Hanover for information on the personal and financial circumstances of the Hanoverian businessman Carl Solling. The reason was the search for a replacement for the businessman Hugo Doormann, who had previously been appointed Mexican consul, but apparently did not take up this position immediately. As a result, on January 23, 1891, Carl Solling was initially only appointed Vice Consul of Mexico. After the following year on July 28, 1892, Baron Dr. med. Louis von Herrmann had been appointed consul, Hugo Doormann found himself again around 1895 as Mexican consul with Solling as vice-consul.

On March 23, 1899, Carl Solling was finally appointed consul of Mexico, who was only joined by the Hanoverian businessman Wilhelm Garvens as Mexican vice-consul on December 17, 1907; Both were confirmed in their offices in 1908 and 1921 after the reorganization of the areas of responsibility of the Hanover consulate.

In addition to his own banking business, Carl Solling worked both in the domestic economy, for example around 1914 shortly before the start of the First World War, as chairman of the supervisory board of the " Hannoversche Actien-Gummiwaaren-Fabrik ", which produces in Starkestraße 15 in Linden , or at the same time as a member of the supervisory board of the Schwabingerbrauerei AG .

At the stock exchange at Hannover , the "commerce and Discount Bank Karl Solling & Co." occurred on July 15, 1922 - just over a year before the peak of the German hyperinflation - with shares of Midland rubber Werke AG in the amount of 3,150,000 Mark in appearance .

Carl Solling died during the Weimar Republic on April 7, 1925. One of his youngest successors as Consul of Mexico is the lawyer and notary Ulrich von Jeinsen .
