Original – Composer Amilcare Ponchielli, circa 1870s
Reason
While mainly known for one song nowadays - the Dance of the Hours - that's a song almost everyone knows. Many composers don't even have that. Plus, it's a very nice little cabinet card, I think. If we ever get an article on the photographer, it should definitely appear in it, but the lead image of a notable composer is certainly sufficient.
