Lorin Hollander (born July 19, 1944), American classical concert pianist who first played at Carnegie Hall at age 11. Original, vintage, pen and ink, "on-the-spot" illustration by George 'Georges' Krishizki. The hand drawn illustration has been signed by Hollander and additionally signed, dated and titled by Krishizki: "Georges / 1971 / Lorin Hollander / Playing Prokofiev's Concerto No 2 for Piano and Orchestra 6 minor. Opus 16."

Hollander has performed with virtually all of the major symphony orchestras in the United States and many around the world. A New York Times critic has called him, "the leading pianist of his generation." Beginning in 1959, Hollander toured regularly performing as soloist with symphonies and in recital around the United States. He made a last minute substitution for Van Cliburn as soloist with the San Antonio Symphony at age 14. In the same year, Hollander made his international debut with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra. He also began making appearances on national television including the The Perry Como Show, the Bell Telephone Hour, and the following year on The Ed Sullivan Show. He began making several critically acclaimed recordings for RCA, the first one in 1958. In 1961, he performed with the New York Philharmonic under the baton of Leonard Bernstein, and appearances with renowned conductors such as Copland, Haitink, Leinsdorf, Levine, Mehta, Monteux, Ormandy, Ozawa, Previn, Schwarz and Szell continued throughout his career.

George 'Georges' Krishizki (March 22, 1924 – December 20, 2001), Russian-Polish-American illustrator who came to the U.S. in 1949. While he earned acclaim for his renderings of the city’s architectural landmarks, it was his on-the-spot drawings of musicians in performance that attracted an especially appreciative audience. In a 1973 article published in conjunction with two simultaneous exhibitions, Georges explained the genesis of his long-running engagement with the concert hall: “I’ve always enjoyed going to concerts, and one day I decided it would be fun to combine my interests in music and art and make sketches of musicians during performances.”  Indeed, the most remarkable feature of Georges’ oeuvre, apart from the astounding range of performers who gladly expressed their approval and appreciation by signing, is the skill with which the drawings are accomplished.

This original pen and ink illustration, measuring approximately 9 x 12, on heavy-weight sketch paper, is in fine condition with some light overall toning. Its verso is blank and clean.
