De Los Angeles, Victoria. (1923-2005) [Krishizki, George. (1924-2001)]

Signed Drawing

An original pen and ink illustration of the great Spanish lyric soprano by artist George Krishizki, boldly signed by De Los Angeles and additionally signed, dated and titled by Krishizki: "Georges / 1972 / Victoria de Los Angeles singing Manuel de Falla's 'Jota.'" 9 x 12 inches.

The Russian-Polish-American illustrator George 'Georges' Krishizki came to the U.S. in 1949; his on-the-spot drawings of musicians in performance attracted an appreciative audience. In a 1973 article published in conjunction with two simultaneous exhibitions, the artist explained the genesis of his long-running engagement with the concert hall: “I’ve always enjoyed going to concerts, and one day I decided it would be fun to combine my interests in music and art and make sketches of musicians during performances.” (14963)
