Caruso, Enrico. (1873-1921)

Signed Photograph, "Pagliacci."

Vintage signed sepia postcard photograph, the image depicting Caruso standing in a full length pose in costume as Canio from Leoncavallo's "Pagliacci." Photograph by Bert of Paris. Signed boldly in black fountain pen ink with his name alone across a clear area at the base of the image. Two horizontal creases in lower area, otherwise fine.

Caruso is seen in one of his signature roles. His recording of "Vesti la giubba" was the first record to sell one million copies and this may be the most iconic of all opera photographs. (6179)
