After Beethoven's death, love letters from the composer were discovered inside his desk, addressed to his "immortal beloved", the identity of whom still remains a mystery. Both Therese Malfatti, one of Beethoven's students, and Countess Thérèse von Brunswick have been suggested as the mystery woman. "Many have speculated over whom might be the recipient, made more difficult by the fact that there is no year or place given on the letters. But [Maynard] Solomon, following Beethoven's date on the letters, his movement during the period (1812) and studying the persons close to Beethoven, has come to the solution that Antonie Brentano must be the answer, now generally accepted as being correct."
