Description

Gorgeous signature of the monumentally important composer

Excessively rare ink signature, “L. v. Beethoven,” on an off-white 4.5 x 1.5 slip somewhat irregularly clipped from a letter, bearing his monogrammed wax seal affixed to the left edge impressed with the initials, “LVB.” Attractively mounted, matted, and framed to an overall size of 12.25 x 9.75. In fine condition. A remarkably clean and legible example of one of the most sought-after signatures in history, made particularly desirable by its embellishment with his personal wax seal. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
