OriginalLilly Walleni, Swedish mezzo-soprano, in the title role of the opera Daria
Reason
The Swedish Performing Arts Agency has kindly done quite a huge release to Commons; this is the first of an exploration. High resolution, which does show off some of the flaws from film grain size, but allowed some pretty precise work in the restoration. Opera's rarely performed nowadays - it's by Georges Marty, but in discussion with Ipigott, we decided that the quality of the image in depicting her more than made up for that. I also did a second (and much easier!) restoration of her in La Navarraisse, but I'd say this is the one to look at.
