Dramatic 1949 promotional bust portrait photograph of the great pianist whose flourishing career was cut tragically short by a plane crash on the way back from Australia.  Copland wrote of him: “ I cannot conceive of his ever having given a dull performance – an erratic one, perhaps, a misguided or stylistically incongruous one maybe, but invariably one that was electric and alive.”  Mild toning; overall fine.  8 x 10 inches (20.3 x 25.4 cm.).
