Image of the Day

Continuing my tribute to the great Renata Tebaldi on the week of her birthday, here is a stunning studio photo of the diva in costume for Verdi's Aida, shot in Paris, 1959.  Taken the same year as the great Karajan/Culshaw Surround Sound recording for Decca with Carlo Bergonzi and Giulietta Simionato it goes hand in hand with this benchmark recording.
