Original photograph by Julien Ganz
Period albumen print (1882), cabinet format (14,5 x 10,5 cm)
Mounted on thick cardboard in the photographer’s credit (16,5 x 10,8 cm)
Dark red edge all around
“Liszt” annotation on back side from an unknown hand
Striking and unpublished portrait of the musician
Several variants taken on the same day are known. However, none of them show Liszt staring at the lens. His portrait is all the more intense here.
Some traces of an old assembly mounting on margins, small scratches, and small accidents at the lower corners of the cardboard (see scans), otherwise good condition.
