Picture of the day

A basso porto (At the Lower Harbour) is an opera in three acts by the Italian composer Niccola Spinelli. The opera sets an Italian-language libretto by Eugene Checchi, based on Goffredo Cognetti's 1889 play O voto. It premiered to critical success at the Cologne Opera on April 18, 1894, sung in a German translation by Ludwig Hartmann and Otto Hess. This watercolour illustration depicts the set design by Riccardo Salvadori for act 1 of the opera's premiere. A basso porto is set in the slums of Naples, and Spinelli included mandolins and guitars in his orchestral score.Set design credit: Riccardo Salvadori

About me

I'm a professional German-to-English science translator with 20 years of experience. I also studied history in NY and Germany, with foci on the history of women, economics and art. I'm still learning how Wikipedia works, so please accept my apologies for n00b errors and I'd welcome any constructive advice you'd like to add to my talk page.

Why am I on Wikipedia?

Wikipedia is one of the most wonderful human projects ever undertaken. I use it in almost every translation job now. Recently I was looking around for Ger>Eng history texts to translate pro bono and was delighted to find that was a way I could contribute to Wikipedia.
