ROSSINI GIOACHINO: (1792-1868) Italian Composer.
A Blanc image inscribed to another BlancA very fine, large signed and inscribed sepia 9.5 x 12 photograph by Rossini, the oval image depicting the composer seated in a half length pose. Photograph by Numa Blanc and signed by him to the lower right margin of the image with their name alone. Signed and inscribed in fountain pen ink by Rossini to the lower photographer's mount, in French, 'Offert a mon aimable confrere et ami Adolphe Blanc, G. Rossini', and dated Paris, 21st November 1859 in his hand. A wonderful signed portrait with an excellent association. A couple of very light, extremely minor stains to the background of the image and some very light, minor age wear to the photographer's mount, largely to the extreme edges. VGAdolphe Blanc (1828-1885) French Composer of Chamber Music.Numa Blanc (1816-1897) French Photographer.Rossini wrote some 39 operas, the best known perhaps being The Barber of Seville, and was a prolific composer of sacred music, chamber music, songs and some other instrumental pieces. Known as 'The Italian Mozart', until his retirement in 1829 Rossini had been the most popular opera composer in history.
