In the US, Capitol Records modified the Beatles' albums from their original configurations, altering track listings and artwork. This was done because albums released in the US contained fewer tracks, typically no more than 11 or 12, due to differences in how publishing royalties were calculated in the two countries. Also, in the American market it was expected for albums to include the current hit single, whereas British albums typically did not duplicate songs released as singles. This resulted in 11 albums being released by Capitol from 1964 to 1966, culled from seven UK albums and various singles. This trend continued until 1967, when the Beatles signed a new recording contract with EMI, dissatisfied with how Capitol and other companies around the world were issuing their work in almost unrecognizable forms, and now insisting upon full approval rights concerning album titles and cover art, track listing and running order in the United States; their albums were released unmodified starting with \u003ci\u003eSgt.

Although her Paris portraits are indebted stylistically to Man Ray's, she brought to them a sympathetic eye that was very much her own. Her portraits of women are notable for their empathic understanding of her subjects, but she reached a depth of expression in her photographs of James Joyce.  Abbott photographed Joyce on two occasions, the first in 1926 at his home, the second in 1928 at her studio, as was her more customary practice. This portrait belongs to the earlier session, when Joyce was photographed both with and without the patch over his eye, worn because of his sadly degenerating sight. This intimate portrait, with its softly diffused lighting, suggests the complex, introverted character of Joyce's imagination.

Cast in natural white plaster, verso hollowed interior beneath an integral suspension loop.

The forty-one-year-old Beethoven gave Klein permission to mold his face, but \"Klein encountered some resistance from his famous subject, who was sure the wet gypsum with which his whole face had been plastered would suffocate him.  The first attempt ended in failure, but the result of the second attempt is a priceless legacy.  Physical comparison with the verbal portraits of Beethoven is, thanks to this uncannily accurate artifact, made possible.  The squarish head is not really unusually large (as remembered by Schindler and the Bonn baker, for example); the vertical stretch from chin to hairline measures just short of eight inches (19.75 centimeters).  But the forehead is large: pronounced, powerful, wide, rounded, and prominent without being really high.  In profile view it bulges slightly forward above the furrowed brow.  The nose is indeed flat and broadens out over the lower cartilage.  A marked vertical groove- the philtrum- runs from under the nose to just above the middle of the upper lip.  Seen level at full face the nostril wings flare ever so slightly, inspiring the “lion-muzzle” analogy of certain descriptions.  If the life mask is picked up and observed from below, the orifices of the nostrils are seen to be of uneven circumference, with the left much smaller and a bit higher than the right.  The contracted brow and drooping set of the firmly clamped lips are partially due to the uncomfortable procedure of plaster casting, but do agree with contemporary descriptions of Beethoven’s facial expression when not animated.  Most striking are the scar on the right side of the nose, the deep scar on the right side of the chin, and the pronounced cleft.  When one actually touches the mask this cleft can be felt to throw up a mound of flesh on either side- the “shell-like conformation” mentioned by Schindler.  This strange configuration at the tip of the chin is not the result of a bony chin, but of an overdeveloped mentalis muscle that raises the chin and pushes up the lower lip.  The fidelity of Klein’s life mask extends even to the reproduction of Beethoven’s skin pores and facial scars.  While contemporary accounts uniformly referred to the many blemishes as smallpox scars, there are some lumpy areas around the chin and mouth, on the cheeks, and especially above the nose between the eyebrows not explained by smallpox.... Whatever the medical cause of Beethoven’s pustular facial eruptions—and a secure diagnosis is admittedly difficult—the formidable impression conveyed by Klein’s austere life mask of seriousness and intense concentration (again, due partly to the plastering discomfort) would be seized upon by all later image makers as appropriate to the Beethoven aura.  But the pockmarks—hardly conducive to hero worship—would be left behind.\" (Alessandra Comini, \"The Changing Image of Beethoven,\" p. 33–34)\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093722976415,"sku":"19650","price":500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Beethoven_1812_Life_Mask_19650b.jpg?v=1722189920"},{"product_id":"19711-smith-kiki-b-1954-my-secret-business-signed-print","title":"Smith, Kiki.
