1897 Cyrano Liebig Performed Plays Rostand

EDITORS COMMENTS
Cyrano de Bergerac: Act Four, Scene Ten in the Camp - A Dramatic Moment of Reckoning (Mary Evans Picture Library, MEV000656) In this evocative image from the 1897 production of Edmond Rostand's timeless play "Cyrano de Bergerac," we find ourselves in the heart of Act Four, Scene Ten, set in the military camp. The scene is filled with tension as Cyrano (played by the esteemed German actor, Adolf Rosenthal), with a heavy heart and a sword in hand, confronts his longtime friend, Le Bret (Liebig, portrayed by the renowned Austrian actor, Max Landa). The moment is charged with history and theatre, as the two men stand face to face, their friendship on the brink of shattering. The background of the photograph, taken from the audience's perspective, reveals the dimly lit camp, with soldiers huddled around fires, creating an atmosphere of anticipation and unease. The focus, however, remains on the two central figures, their expressions etched with emotion and determination. Cyrano, with his signature long nose, holds a letter in his hand, the contents of which have driven him to this moment of reckoning. Le Bret, with a look of confusion and concern, reaches out a hand in an attempt to defuse the situation. This photograph, a captivating glimpse into the past, transports us back to the late 19th century and the world of Rostand's masterpiece. It encapsulates the raw emotion and intensity of the play, offering a poignant reminder of the power of friendship and the consequences of deceit. The image, preserved in the Mary Evans Picture Library, serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of "Cyrano de Bergerac" and the captivating performances of its actors.
