It comprises almost 2100 portrait photographs and group pictures of instrumentalists, singers, conductors and composers from the period between around 1860 and 1920. The collection also contains silhouettes, caricatures, title engravings and portrait engravings from the 17th to 19th centuries.

The online presentation of the portrait collection will be available here at the beginning of 2025.
