In the 1920s – 1940s it was difficult during the actual recital to photograph Lehmann and her pianist. We have very few “live” photos and so we need to supplement them with the studio portraits. Should you have any photos of Lehmann singing, please send them to me. As of 2017 we have some new ones of Lehmann singing with either orchestra or piano. Many thanks!
