Description:

PIETRO MASCAGNI
(1863 - 1945) Italian composer and director of the La Scala, composer of the one-act opera Cavalleria rusticana. Brief A.N.S. in Italian penned on a postcard mailed on July 5, 1911 to his greatest and final love, in full: "To my dear and great Rosina Lolli, in memory of the first performance of Isabeau in Beunos Aires". Isabeau premiered in Buenos Aires on June 2, 1911 at the Columbus Theater, garnering a frenetic reception. Handsomely matted with a portrait and image of the ad for Isabeau so that only the inscription is visible, housed within a carved gilt frame. Fine condition, ideal for display.
