Summary

Mrs Carl Linger, wife of the musician and composer who created "Song of Australia". Mr Linger was married twice and it is unclear if this photograph is of his first wife Wilhelmine who died of consumption in 1860, or his second wife Christiane Mathilde Cranz whom he married in 1861. After Carl Linger's death in 1862, Mathilde Linger returned to Germany. The photo was donated to the Library in 1949 by Lillian Cranz. It is more likely to be the image of Mathilde Linger and was probably inherited from Lillian's father, August Georg Cranz (brother of Mathilde).
