EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Mme Maria Jeritza, the renowned Viennese prima donna who made a significant impact at the Covent Garden international opera season in 1926. With her expressive eyes and enchanting smile, Jeritza exudes an air of sophistication and charm that was emblematic of the Jazz Age and the 1920s. Her elegant attire, featuring a flowing white blouse and intricately beaded neckline, was a fashion statement of the time, reflecting the glamour and opulence of the era. Born in Vienna in 1887, Jeritza began her operatic career in 1908, quickly rising to prominence for her powerful and emotive voice. Her performances in operas such as "Madame Butterfly" and "La Bohème" were met with critical acclaim and adoration from audiences. In 1926, Jeritza made her debut at Covent Garden, where she enchanted audiences with her rendition of the title role in "Tosca." Her performances were described as "mesmerizing" and "unforgettable," solidifying her status as one of the greatest opera singers of her time. This portrait, taken in 1926, is a testament to Jeritza's enduring legacy and the indelible mark she left on the world of opera during the Jazz Age. The image captures not only her extraordinary talent but also the spirit of the 1920s, a time of innovation, glamour, and artistic expression. The portrait is a reminder of the power of music and the enduring allure of the operatic stage.
