Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: February 18, 1857 (Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; The Fine Art Archive; Klinger, Max; Gran Enciclopèdia Catalana; Archivio Storico Ricordi; Integrated Authority File; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; Discogs; BnF authorities; SNAC; Croatian Encyclopedia) or February 12, 1857 (RKDartists).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
