De Reszke, Edouard. (1852-1917)

Autograph Signature and Original Cabinet Photograph as Mephistopheles

A bold autograph, signed "Yours truly Edouard de Reszke 1896" elegantly matted with a fine original Mieczkoski Varsovie cabinet photograph. A couple of light creases to mat, overall in very fine condition. 11 X 14 inches.

A fine item from the great bass and brother of Jean de Reszke. His vast repertory included major Wagner roles, Mephistopheles, Friar Laurence, Don Pedro (L'Africaine), Rocco and Leporello, which he sang at a special centenary performance of Don Giovanni at the Opera in 1887. (3262)
