Tamagno, Francesco. (1850-1905). Signed Photograph.

A desirable undedicated signed photograph of the most famous dramatic tenor of the golden age, dated "Genova, 18-4-[1]903." Best known as the creator of Verdi's "Otello" (1887), he was also the first Gabriele Adorno in the revised 1881 "Simon Boccanegra," and creator of major roles in operas by Ponchielli and Gomes. In an 1892 letter to the great tenor, Puccini writes: "I can always hear the sound of your divine voice in my ear and think of the extraordinary, the inspired interpreter who will sing my music." The present photograph was signed while Tamagno was performing in a revival of "Otello" at La Scala. 9 X 14 cm. Uninscribed, an ideal example in very fine condition.
