By Ervin Kormendi-Frim
Located in New York, NY
Eugene (Jenő) Körmendi-Frim (1889–1959) was a renowned Hungarian-American sculptor, coming from a family of artists. His brother, Erwin Kormendi-Frim (1885 – 1939) was famous Hungarian painter known for his still life’s and portraits in a style developed under the influence of Cézanne. His cousin was Philip Alexius de László, (Hungarian: László Fülöp Elek, 1869 –1937), an Anglo-Hungarian painter known particularly for his portraits of royal and aristocratic personages.

ABOUT
Puccini's Opera - La Bohème
SYNOPSIS - A group of friends are living a Bohemian life in Paris and trying to make their livings creating art. Rodolfo, the writer, falls in love with the seamstress, Mimi, while Marcello, the painter, and Musetta, the singer, are the on-and-off-again couple by their sides. When the four are happy, they spend their time celebrating life and love. However, Mimi is revealed to be very ill, and Rodolfo struggles to come to terms with the fact that she will inevitably die. Rodolfo and Mimi break up, and months later, Musetta discovers Mimi extremely sick and close to death. She brings Mimi to Rodolfo and Marcello's apartment.

Almost as soon as the two are reunited and have professed their love for one another, Mimi succumbs to her illness and dies.
