Mdlle. Titiens, of Her Majesty's Opera, 1876. Creator: Unknown
Mdlle. Titiens, of Her Majesty's Opera, 1876. Engraving of a German opera singer Therese Tietjens, from a photograph by R. Mora, of Broadway, New York. The recent return of Mdlle. Titiens to England has elicited the most enthusiastic recognition of the estimation in which she is held here, as testified at each of her reappearances at Her Majesty's Opera. It was on May 2 that this great artist, as Semiramide, sang for the first time after her absence in America, where her fine performances had won golden opinions in various localities and from many competent critics. At her repetitions of the character just named, as Lucrezia Borgia, and Norma, during the present month, the effect on audiences of Drury-Lane Theatre has proved that these grand impersonations retain all their wonted power, having lost none of their former excellence'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876
