The mount is also signed by Graudenz. Double-matted to an overall size of 11 x 15.75. In very good to fine condition, with a few spots of foxing to the mount, a crack to the lower right corner of the mount, and a surface abrasion to the recipient's first name.
Youra Guller, born Rose Georgette Fuller, (1895–1980) was a French classical pianist who counted Einstein amongst her many prominent chamber music partners. According to Guller, the theoretical physicist was obsessed with intonation. An exceptional portrait boasting a beautiful full signature.
