Distinguished pianist and composer (1873–1943) who takes a place among the last great figures of the Russian romantic school. Glossy 10 x 8 photo of Rachmaninoff working on a score, a cigarette in one hand, signed and inscribed in ink “To Mr D— Riggs, S. Rachmaninoff, 1935.” In very good condition, with a few small creases, surface marks, and impressions (the last touching face), a hint of subtle soiling, and slightly irregular ink adhesion. A particularly striking image! RRAuction COA.
