Summary[edit]

Description

Roberto Focosi's illustration from the variant first edition of the vocal score of Giuseppe Verdi's Rigoletto. Pretty obviously the "Bella figlia dell'amore" scene.

Changes made: Cleaned up the spots and stains. The pasted-on paper wasn't straight, so I rotated and centred it. Levels adjusted, other things in that line.
Date
