Ev'nin' all
Just logging in to report that I just found in our own humble but self-styled "world class" Art Gallery of Victoria - it's upside down to most of you, being in Australia
- that they have a portrait of Count Andrey Kyrillovich Razumovsky, the one who commissioned those three quartets, Op 59. It can also be seen here
http://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/collection.../ipa00094.html
if you care to copaste that link into your address bar.
Seems a bit odd to have it here and he looks like a nice fellow - not that you can really tell from such a portrait. Seems as if such a painting should be in Austria somewhere, but maybe they have other portaits of him. Over and out!
