Romantic era composer and pianist (1811–1886) whose prowess at the keyboard earned him a cachet as perhaps the greatest virtuoso in the history of the instrument. Rare 2.5 x 4 carte-de-visite portrait of Liszt wearing a cassock and holding a small book, signed on the reverse in black ink, “F. Liszt, Avril 66.” Published by Erwin of Paris. Scattered surface marks to image, subtle soiling, and a trimmed bottom edge (barely touching the first letter of the signature and trivially affecting the first letter of the date), otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
