EDITORS COMMENTS
Here is a possible caption for the photo print:
"A. Didur as Boris Godunow (1913)
This striking black and white portrait captures Polish bass singer Adam Didur in his iconic role as Boris Godunov, premiered at the Metropolitan Opera House in March 1913. The photograph was taken by Bain News Service, a pioneering press photography agency that played a significant role in documenting American life during the early 20th century.
Didur's powerful performance as the troubled Russian tsar brought new depth and nuance to Modest Mussorgsky's iconic opera, which had been largely forgotten until Didur's revival. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the world of classical music at its peak in America during this era, when European operas were all the rage.
The image is not only a testament to Didur's remarkable talent but also a window into the cultural and artistic landscape of early 20th-century New York City.
