Description

Appealing AMQS on an off-white 8 x 5 sheet, signed and dated below in ink, "R. Leoncavallo, Milano, 26 ottobre 1897." Leoncavallo pens two bars of music and lyrics from "La Boheme." Nicely double-matted and framed with a portrait to an overall size of 21 x 12.75. In fine condition. Leoncavallo famously wrote his version of 'La Boheme' at the same time as Giacomo Puccini—while Puccini's has become a staple of the operatic repertoire, Leoncavallo's is rarely performed today.
