[Opera] Ruffo, Titta. (1877 - 1953). Large Signed Portrait. Large signed photograph of a portrait of the Golden Age Italian baritone, signed by the artist (Alfredo Galli) in pencil on the mount and boldly signed, inscribed and dated 30.IV.1920 by Ruffo. 8.5 x 12.5 inches [21.5 x 32 cm]. Upper right corner perished, mounting remnants on verso, else fine.

Known as the "Voce del leone" ("voice of the lion"), Ruffo was renowned for his enormous voice, thrilling high notes and dramatic force on stage. Other baritones, even the most eminent, were in awe of Ruffo's voice: Giuseppe De Luca, a baritone star in his own right, said of Ruffo, "His was not a voice, it was a miracle."
