The quasar HE 0047-1756, at z=1.67, is found to be split into two images1.44" apart by an intervening galaxy acting as a gravitational lens. The fluxratio for the two components is roughly 3.5:1, depending slightly uponwavelength. The lensing galaxy is seen on images obtained at 800 nm and 2.1\mu; there is also a nearby faint object which may be responsible for someshear. The spectra of the two quasar images are nearly identical, but theemission line ratio between the two components scale differently from thecontinuum. Moreover, the fainter component has a bluer continuum slope than thebrighter one. We argue that these small differences are probably due tomicrolensing. There are hints of an Einstein ring emanating from the brighterimage toward the fainter one.Comment: 4 pages, submitted to A&A Letter
