EDITORS COMMENTS
. This vibrant and captivating print captures the cast of Edmond Rostand's renowned play, Chantecler. Taken in the early 20th century, this colour lithograph showcases the playwright himself alongside talented actors Felix Galipaux, Lucien Guitry, and Madame Simone.

From Galipaux as Le Merle (the blackbird) to Guitry as Chantecler (the rooster), and Madame Simone as La Poule Faisane (the pheasant hen), these performers exude both elegance and theatrical flair.
