a picture of Mozart's wife

Now this is fascinating.

A picture of the composer Mozart’s wife has been found. The picture of Constanze Weber was taken in 1840 in the Bavarian town of Altoetting when she was 78; she passed away two years later.

She was 29 when Mozart passed away in 1791.

In the picture, Constanze is shown with the composer Max Keller, whom she used to visit regularly.

Read about the find here.
