On 4 March 20023, the image used for the box set of Martha Argerich and Claudio Abbado – Complete Concert Recordings – a photo taken by Ilse Buhs way back in 1967 – triggered the biggest response ever to a DG Facebook post relating to a single image. It was inundated with likes, hearts and wows, and comments flew in from all over the world:
“Amazing picture!”, “Was für ein Bild! Unglaublich ausdrucksstark”, “Amazing quality! It could’ve been shot last week!”, “Maravilhosa fotografia!”, “Che bella foto!!! Affascinanti!”, “What kind of camera was used?? Magnificent shot!”, “What a nice picture! These music legends are also very handsome” In short, it is considered a masterpiece of photographic portraiture.
You are all set!
