meself | Beethoven's death - DNA project (15) | RE: Beethoven's death - DNA project | 25 Mar 23 |
"The Beethoven one is a darker skin, and it seems they had information (in the 1970s or 1980s when they were painting these) that Beethoven was reputed to be half Moorish? I think they were responding to a rumor." This strikes me as odd, since none of the contemporary painted portraits of Beethoven give him a particularly dark complexion, AFAIK. |
