Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Name: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Artist: Jean-Baptiste Greuze
Year, Place: 1763-64, Paris
Medium: Oil on canvas 34x45 cm
Owner: Yale University
Comments: Recent claims by biometrician Martin Braun, along with Mozart leacturer Daniel Leeson, proclaim this portrait to be a young Mozart. Other "researchers" from the murky Wikipedia School of anonymous experts scoff at the idea. The painting is a solid candidate for a complete forensic examination to settle the matter. More
Mozart Name: Mozart

Comments: Some time ago Koechel made headlines by the discovery of an unknown Mozart painting. "In 1988 I found in Moscow a portrait which has been missing for more than 200 years, done by the artist Joseph Grassi. He belonged to Mozart's circle of friends. I think it is the most artistic and similar-looking portrait of Mozart. However, dyed-in-the-wool Mozart lovers have difficulties to free themselves of the hitherto known pictures - despite of their rather moderate quality and resemblance."
Constanze Mozart, nee Weber Name: Constanze Mozart, nee Weber
Artist: Anonymous
Year, Place: 1840,
Medium: Photograph
Owner: Altötting museum
Comments: The photo is of a small party of people in front of the house of composer Max Keller in Altötting and includes Keller and his family. Constanza would have been 78. Wikepedia (quoting unnamed Mozart scholars) claims that its authenticity is much doubted, because the picture was certainly taken with a short exposure that for technical reasons was not yet possible in 1840. However, photographic scholars seem to have clearly demonstrated that such technical expertise was around by 1838.
