EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, taken in 1932, American opera singer Lawrence Tibbett (1896-1960) is seen enjoying a peaceful moment in the garden of his French Riviera home at Cap d'Antibes with his beloved wife. The renowned baritone, known for his powerful and expressive voice, had made a name for himself on the world's greatest opera stages. The 1930s were a golden era for Tibbett, both professionally and personally. He had recently performed at the Metropolitan Opera in New York and the Covent Garden Opera in London, and the success of his career allowed him and his wife to build a beautiful villa on the picturesque Cap d'Antibes, a popular retreat for American expatriates and European aristocrats. The couple's garden, filled with exotic plants and flowers, provides a serene backdrop for their leisurely stroll. Tibbett wears a casual, relaxed outfit, while his wife looks elegant in a flowing dress that complements the vibrant colors of the blooming foliage. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. This photograph captures a rare moment of respite for the celebrated artist, who was known for his intense dedication to his craft. It serves as a reminder of the human side of a man who captivated audiences with his passionate performances on the world's most prestigious stages. The 1930s were a time of glamour and sophistication on the French Riviera, and this image of Lawrence Tibbett and his wife in their garden at Cap d'Antibes is a testament to the allure and charm of that era.
