  The quasar HE 0047-1756, at z=1.67, is found to be split into two images
1.44" apart by an intervening galaxy acting as a gravitational lens. The flux
ratio for the two components is roughly 3.5:1, depending slightly upon
wavelength. 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 some
shear. The spectra of the two quasar images are nearly identical, but the
emission line ratio between the two components scale differently from the
continuum. Moreover, the fainter component has a bluer continuum slope than the
brighter one. We argue that these small differences are probably due to
microlensing. There are hints of an Einstein ring emanating from the brighter
image toward the fainter one.
