The Story
One sheet with two separate signed photographs of two leading mid to late twentieth century Italian opera singers, both appearing in Francesco Cilea's Adriana Lecouvreur.
On the front side we see star Italian tenor Franco Corelli (1921-2003) as Maurizio with Italian soprano Magda Olivero (1910-2014) in the title role appearing at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples in 1959, the signature on this page is only that of Corelli and the photograph is by the Troncone photo studio. While there is additional handwriting at the top of the page referring to Clara Petrella, it does in fact appear that the soprano shown here is actually Olivero.
The verso side of this sheet contains a separate signed photograph of Olivero alone, shown again as Adriana Lecouvreur, this time from a performance given in Florence in 1966, the photo is by the photographer Marchiori. Signatures on each of these photos are at the bottom of the page and do not affect the image. Size of this item is 8.5 x 11 inches, very small crease on bottom of the page, otherwise in excellent condition.
