Description

The famed Austrian composer and his equally famous consort

Schoenberg (1874–1951) was an Austrian-born composer whose development of the ‘twelve-tone’ system proved to be one of the most far-reaching innovations in the history of 20th century music. Mahler (1879–1964) was an Austrian composer, author, and companion of famous men. Uncommon glossy 4.25 x 3.25 photo of Schoenberg and Mahler amidst a group of people at an event in Holland, the others including Gertrude Forstel, Willem Mengelberg, and Gertrud Kolisch, affixed to a 7.25 x 5.5 mount, signed on the mount in fountain pen, “Schonberg” and “Alma M. Mahler.” In fine condition, with photo partially detached from mount and a few subtle marks and creases to the mount. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
