Article new enough, long enough. Hook is interesting, with two facts, both cited in the article; sources AGF in Italian and Swedish. No copyvio detected, but the Iris link is a DAB, easily corrected to Iris (opera). The restored image is provided by Swedish Performing Arts Agency as part of a cooperation project with Wikimedia Sverige. Once DAB is fixed and QPQ is completed, GTG.

Fausta Labia (1870–1935) was an Italian operatic soprano who was active mainly from 1892 to 1908. She made her debut in Naples in April 1892 as Valentine in Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots. After engagements at the Royal Swedish Opera in Stockholm (1893–95) and Lisbon (1896), she returned to Italy where she performed first in Turin, Rome and Bologna. Thereafter notable performances included the title role in Mascagni's Iris at La Fenice in Venice (1900) and Sieglinde in Wagner's Die Walküre at Milan's La Scala (1901). This 1893 photograph depicts Labia while she was engaged at the Royal Swedish Opera.
