Carte de visite, signed, undated but circa 1899

 Item — Box: 14

Scope and Contents

Carte-de-visite, partly water-damaged, by Tempestini of Spezia, Viareggio, and Montecatini. Multiple photographs and cartes-de-visite of Verdi by Tempestini exist, and most appear to be dated 1899-1900. A photograph in the Archivio Storico Ricordi, made by Tempestini and with Verdi in similar or identical clothing, is dated August 1899. Originally framed by the donor with other Verdi items in this collection, most likely the letter from Milan and the music manuscript.
