Nikisch, Arthur. (1855-1922)

Signed Photograph Postcard

Signed photograph postcard of the important conductor, the first conduct Bruckner's 7th Symphony and the first to record Beethoven's complete 5th Symphony. Nikisch has signed boldly across the image of himself smoking in an armchair, ca. 1900-1910. Light ghost transfer of another signature to the upper edge, otherwise in fine condition, an ideal uninscribed example.

Regarded as one of the founders of modern conducting , Nikisch held posts as principal conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Gewandausorchester in Leipzig and the Berlin Philharmonic. (13593)
