Foto de Arthur Sullivan (September 8, 1858), tomada de una entrevista en la revista The Strand Magazine, diciembre de 1897

Date: 1897

NOTE: This image has sometimes been miscaptioned. Sullivan was 16 years old in the photo, which is clearly dated "September 8th 1858". It is signed "Arthur Sullivan", omitting the middle initial "S", which he usually used in his signature at that time. This omission is explained by the owner of the original image, Miss Helmore, in a letter to the Editor, published in The Musical Times on February 1, 1901, p. 99. She writes that Sullivan gave the photo to her mother, Kate Helmore, and he knew that Mrs. Helmore did not like him to sign his middle initial because of his "inappropriate" initials: A.S.S. Sullivan, as a Chapel Royal chorister, had lived with the Helmores for several years, as Miss Helmore's father, Thomas Helmore, was master of the choir; Sullivan was very fond of her mother.
