EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the renowned French playwright Corneille (1606-1684) in the character of Matamore from his play "L'Illusion Comique," first performed in Paris in 1636. The play, a masterpiece of 17th-century French theatre, is a complex and intriguing exploration of love, illusion, and reality. Corneille, whose real name was Pierre-Corneille Labiche, was a leading figure in the development of French classical drama. "L'Illusion Comique" is considered one of his greatest works, and it continues to be performed and studied around the world today. The play tells the story of Clitandre, a young man who is deceived into believing that his beloved Ismene has been unfaithful to him. In his despair, he vows to take his own life. However, he is saved by the intervention of the enchantress Alcandre, who creates a series of illusions to help him overcome his despair and win back his love. In this image, Corneille is depicted as Matamore, one of the characters in the play who is known for his love of illusion and deceit. He is shown holding a mask, a symbol of the disguises and deceptions that are central to the plot of the play. The elaborate costumes and the theatrical setting further emphasize the theme of illusion and the power of the theatre to transport us to another world. This photograph print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of French theatre and the enduring legacy of Corneille's work. It is a reminder of the power of the arts to entertain, inspire, and challenge us, and of the enduring human desire to believe in the magic of illusion.
