In a time where wearing 'powder puff' wigs was all the rage I find it interesting to consider that this great composer didn't care if the world knew he was balding. When I think about it, that says a real sincerity to me. It tells the story of man who wasn't ashamed of who he ACTUALLY was and that is very rare indeed!
My instinctive reaction was, "Why didn't he portray himself while wearing a wig? After all, it seems practically everyone was doing it back then". Interesting fellow, this Viotti
