Notes

Description

This image is of an opera singer who played the character Gretchen from the opera Faust in a 1960 production. In this headshot, she turns her head slightly towards the left. This image appears to be a rephotograph, made evident by the word "Lenartest" written in the lower left corner of the image. There is also some sort of shadow or stain on the image, visible extending from the lower right of image to her brow.
