From the New York Times:

Correction: August 5, 2006
A picture yesterday with an obituary of the soprano Elisabeth Schwarzkopf was published in error. It showed Anneliese Rothenberger — not Miss Schwarzkopf — in the role of Sophie from “Der Rosenkavalier,” a 1962 film adaptation of the Richard Strauss opera. The Salzburg Festival mounted that production, in which Miss Schwarzkopf had the role of the Marschallin, and originally distributed the photograph with the incorrect information. A picture of Miss Schwarzkopf appears today on Page C10. The obituary also misspelled the surname of a music critic for The New York Times who reviewed Miss Schwarzkopf’s debut at the Metropolitan Opera in 1964. He was Raymond Ericson, not Erickson.
