Description: Collotype stamped with the photographer's name "Grete Back Dresden Bl. Breast in profile with the upper part of the body turned away. The sitter is wearing a dark dress as well as pearl jewellery and has her eyes cast down thoughtfully. Minnie NAST counts among the great German opera singers of the early 20th century. After her musical studies at the Baden Conservatory in Karlsruhe, she made her singing debut in Aachen in 1897. She began a successful career that took her to stages in Canada, the United States of America, Russia, the Netherlands and Great Britain, among others. Until 1919, the soprano sang regularly at the Semper Opera in Dresden. After that she taught singing in Dresden until 1945. Minnie NAST is known for her lively and light embodiments of soubrette roles, especially in Mozart operas. She gave an outstanding performance on 26 January 1911 when she sang the role of Sophie in the world premiere of Richard Strauss' Der Rosenkavalier. Through surviving sound recordings, her clear and enchanting voice can still be experienced today. The photograph comes from the studio of the famous Dresden photographer Grete BACK (real name Margarete Bertha Back), who after an apprenticeship with Hugo ERFURTH in Dresden also worked in other European countries and finally opened her own studio in Dresden in 1909. The focus of her photographic work is portrait and theatre photography.
