EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the young and prodigious Venezuelan pianist and composer, Teresa Carreño, in 1862. Teresa Carreño (1853-1917) was born in Caracas, Venezuela, and began her musical training at the age of three. By the time she was six, she had given her first public performance, and by the age of ten, she had already toured Europe, performing for royalty and dignitaries. This photograph, taken at the renowned Mathew B. Brady photo studio in the United States, showcases Teresa Carreño in her prime. Her intense gaze and expressive posture convey the depth of her artistic talent and passion for music. The elegant Victorian dress she wears adds to the sophistication and refinement of the image. Teresa Carreño's musical career spanned over six decades, and she was known for her virtuosic performances on the piano. She composed numerous works, including piano pieces, chamber music, and orchestral compositions. Her music reflected the rich cultural heritage of Venezuela and her European training, making her a unique and influential figure in the world of classical music. This photograph is a rare and precious document of Teresa Carreño's early years, capturing the essence of a musical prodigy whose talent and artistry continue to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
