1897 Cyrano Liebig Performed Plays Rostand Serenade Roxane
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the poignant moment from Act Three, Scene One of Edmond Rostand's timeless play "Cyrano de Bergerac," titled "The Serenade." In this scene, Christian (played by actor Gustav Wyneken) serenades his beloved Roxane (portrayed by Hermine Keller) from afar, unaware that it is actually Cyrano (Liebig 3, played by Albert Algoth) who has written the words and played the music on his viola. The year is 1897, and this historical photograph was taken during a theatrical performance at the Deutsches Theater in Berlin, Germany. The exquisite detail in the image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the raw emotion and passion that unfolds between the characters. Roxane, enchanted by the beautiful words and music, is unknowingly falling deeper in love with Cyrano, who is consumed by his own unrequited love for her. Christian, oblivious to the truth, believes that Roxane is responding to his affections. The intricate set design, with its ornate columns and lush greenery, adds to the romantic atmosphere, while the dramatic lighting highlights the intensity of the scene. The actors' expressions and body language convey the depth of their emotions, making this a truly unforgettable moment in theatrical history. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of Rostand's play, which continues to captivate audiences with its themes of love, honor, and self-sacrifice. The image serves as a reminder of the transformative effect that live theatre can have on our hearts and minds, transporting us to another world and allowing us to experience the human condition in all its complexity.
