CALLAS MARIA: (1923-1977) American-born Greek Soprano.

Item Details

Description

CALLAS MARIA: (1923-1977) American-born Greek Soprano.

A good vintage signed and inscribed 8 x 10 photograph, the image depicting La Divina in a head and shoulders pose in costume as Leonora from Giuseppe Verdi's opera Il trovatore. Signed in bold, dark fountain pen ink to the image, 'To Bernard Baker, Cordially, Maria Meneghini Callas', and dated 1958 in her hand. The signature runs across a darker area of the image, although is perfectly legible. About EX

The present image of Callas was captured in 1955 and shows her in the Chicago Lyric Opera's production of the opera Il trovatore. The impresario Rudolf Bing recalled of Callas's performance as Leonora in Chicago that 'it was Callas's quiet listening, rather than [Jussi] Bjorling's singing that made the dramatic impact….He didn't know what he was singing, but she knew'.

Maria Callas led a life full of drama and personal tragedy, however her artistic achievement and enduring influence were such that Leonard Bernstein described her as 'the Bible of opera' and the singer still remains the definition of the diva as artist.
