莫札特肖像由 Barbara Kraft 所繪 (1819年)。
This posthumous portrait of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was painted by Barbara Kraft at the request of Joseph Sonnleithner in 1819, long after Mozart died. Sonnleithner, who was making a "collection of portraits in oils of well-known composers" (Mozart: A Documentary Biography by Otto Erich Deutsch, Stanford University Press 1965) wrote to Mozart's still-living sister Maria Anna ("Nannerl"), asking her to lend a picture to Kraft (a well-known artist working in Salzburg). Here is part of Nannerl's reply:
... [her friend ] Councillor von Drossdick ... sent the artist to me to see all 3 [of my] pictures [of Mozart], the one that was painted when he came back from the Italian journey is the oldest, he was then just 16 years old, but as he had just got up from a serious illness, the picture looks sickly and very yellow; the picture in the family portrait when he was 22 years old is very good, and the miniature, when he was 26 years old, is the most recent I have, I therefore showed this one to the painter first; it seemed to me from her silence that is would not be very easy to enlarge it, I therefore had to show her the family portrait and the other one, too. ... she wants to take her copy from the family portrait and introduce only those features from the small picture which make him look somewhat older than in the big picture."
Deutsch identifies the three pictures as:
"Perhaps" the portrait by Knoller, Milan 1773.
The family portrait by della Croce.
A lost small version of the famous portrait by Joseph Lange.

抱歉没有复片，因为我没有预期萨尔茨堡邮戳。 我没有买更多莫扎特邮票因为这张邮票来自有八张邮票的小全张 (其他七张邮票不是莫扎特)。奥地利邮政出售这些个性化邮票。 价格是几乎双倍邮票面值。 有一些早期个性化邮票例如莫扎特出生故居邮票(2006年?)二年前已经是每枚20欧元现在无法买到。
