Notes
Biographical/historical: Pencil drawing from a photograph of Rafael Joseffy by Jesse Roy Washington. The portrait was drawn in 1937 for the newly-formed Rafael Joseffy Memorial Foundation organized by the pianist's son, Carl Joseffy. Articles in two consecutive issues of the Musical Courier magazine (Aug 15 and Sep 1, 1937) singled out for praise this portrait rendering "from the pencil of Jesse Roy Washington, a gifted young colored artist." The 20-year-old artist's signature appears under the triangle of the subject's pocket square. The first article informed that this "striking pencil drawing of Joseffy...in enlarged form, has been hung in the Library of Congress, at the New York Public Library, at G. Schirmer's music house in New York, and other appropriate places."
