TITTA RUFFO. Picture Postcard signed: "Titta Ruffo", 3½x5½.
Illustration (2¼x3¾) of an moonlit ocean viewed from a terrace. Operatic
baritone Titta Ruffo (1877-1953), an ironworker's son, had a striking
physique and powerful voice which earned him the title of "the singing
lion." He performed at the world's great opera houses, although some reports
credit a jealous Enrico Caruso with delaying his debut at the Met, where he
appeared 1922-1929. His opposition to fascist rule in his native Italy kept him
out of the limelight for much of his retirement. Slightly soiled. Otherwise,
fine condition.
