A couple of things, most of the Google results I get for this name
indicate it is actually two different people (one Ullstein and the
other Nicolai), I also get references for works published post 1980. I
simply can't get over the mathematical logic that your list of people
predates chemical photographic processes, with the exceptions of Wagner
and Mendelssohn, who might have had opportunity to sit for several
minutes while their photo was taken...although, musicians tend to be
rather kinetic folks. Perhaps, this, and the earlier composers had
their portraits made using a camera obscura (rather popular with
artists of their time) and Ullstein/Nicolai are publishers or editors? Or else, you have a twisted sense of humor and are very bored. Formyrotts@xxxxxxx wrote: In a message dated 12/6/2008 5:50:33 PM Eastern Standard Time, trevor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx writes: |
