Engraving of Beethoven, proof number 125, signed by Léa Wahl Fontaine, early 20th century, 1910
Created by the French painter and draughtswoman Léa Wahl Fontaine (1867-1940), this framed engraving depicts Ludwig van Beethoven, the renowned 19th-century German composer, conductor, and pianist.
Numbered 125 and signed by her in pencil in the lower right corner, it is framed in a Baroque wood and gilt stucco frame. Léa Wahl Fontaine's work is typically academic and neoclassical, the artist's only liberty being the capture of emotions in the moment.
Beethoven is shown as an older man, his clothing disheveled, his hair loose and untidy. His gaze turned towards the heavens, his face closed off, aptly summarizes Beethoven's free spirit and life force, marked by a difficult childhood and deafness that did not prevent him from creating some of the most beautiful works in the classical repertoire.
