1871 Luisa Neckline Opera Singer Performing Tetrazzini
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting Italian opera singer, Luisa Tetrazzini, in the midst of a mesmerizing performance during the early 20th century. Born in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy, in 1871, Tetrazzini rose to international fame for her stunning voice and captivating stage presence. Dressed in an elegant and intricately beaded gown with a low-cut neckline, Tetrazzini exudes confidence and allure as she holds a cigarillo between her fingers. The image, taken in the 1940s, defies the societal norms of the time, as women smoking on stage was considered taboo. However, Tetrazzini, known for her bold and unconventional personality, embraced this rebellious image, further adding to her allure and mystique. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in the representation of a trailblazing woman in the male-dominated world of opera but also in the capture of a moment of pure artistic expression. Tetrazzini's intense focus and connection to the music are palpable, transporting the viewer to the enchanting world of Italian opera. Luisa Tetrazzini's career spanned over five decades, during which she graced the stages of the world's most prestigious opera houses, including La Scala in Milan and the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Her repertoire included some of the most iconic operatic roles, such as Violetta in La Traviata and Leonora in Il Trovatore. This photograph serves as a testament to Tetrazzini's indomitable spirit and her unwavering dedication to her art, making it a valuable addition to any collection of opera history or historical portraits.
