The Composer Johann Nepomuk Hummel

This plate was made after the French lithograph by Pierre Roch Vigneron and was printed at the Royal Lithographic Establishment in Madrid where López Ballesteros worked. Our artist also reproduced a number of foreign lithographs and works in the Prado collection. Hummel, a disciple of Mozart’s, was one of the most famous pianists of his age and worked for several European courts.
