Giordano, Umberto. (1867 - 1948). SP with AMQS from "Andrea Chénier." . A spectacular autograph musical quotation from the composer's most celebrated work. On a photograph of the La Scala stage set from the third act, Giordano has boldly penned 3 measures from the work. He apparently began to draw the staff lines in a darker portion, but though better of it and the AMQS was accomplished in the most visible area of the photograph. He has addressed and signed the verso "Saluti /U. Giordano / 24-III-1916" beneath the postal cancellation from La Scala which is also visible. Elegantly double-matted with a postcard portrait, so that both sides of the AMQS card are visible. A real prize!
