EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning portrait captures the enchanting beauty and grace of Adelina Patti, one of the most celebrated opera singers of the late 19th century. The photograph, taken by the renowned Italian photographer Charles Bergamasco (1830-1896) between 1870 and 1875, showcases Patti in her prime, with an expressive gaze that draws the viewer in. Born in Madrid in 1843, Patti began her musical training at a young age and made her professional debut at the age of 15. Her exceptional vocal abilities and captivating stage presence quickly earned her international acclaim, and she went on to perform in the world's most prestigious opera houses, including La Scala in Milan, the Royal Opera House in London, and the Metropolitan Opera in New York. This albumen print, a popular photographic process of the time, captures the delicate textures and tonalities of Patti's costume and the intricate details of her elaborate hairstyle. The soft focus and subtle lighting add to the ethereal quality of the image, which has been preserved in a private collection in Russia. Bergamasco, a leading photographer of the period, was known for his portraits of prominent figures in the arts and culture of his time. His portrait of Adelina Patti is a testament to his skill and artistry, as well as a precious document of the life and career of one of the greatest opera singers in history.
