Scene from Halevy's New Opera of "La Tempesta", at Her Majesty's Theatre, [London], 1850....one of the most beautilul specimens of scone-painting that can be imagined. A gorgeous vessel under full sail is seen advancing to the shore, while the chorus sang once more the tune of " Where the bee sucks" - a most happy idea of the composer's, who deserves no less praise for the manner in which it was introduced than for the admirable relief given to it by the instrumentation. At the close of this magnificent display, the curtain tails as the vessel reaches the shore; when artistes, composer, author, conductor, and impresario, were all called forward to receive the reward their exertions so well deserved. Such a truly artistic work has seldom been seen on any stage; it is full ot charming contrasts, employs every resource of modern art, and is free from all that is meretricious, glaring, and noisy'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a scene from Halevy's new opera, "La Tempesta," performed at Her Majesty's Theatre in London during 1850. The image showcases a magnificent vessel under full sail, gracefully approaching the shore. The chorus can be heard singing the enchanting tune of "Where the bee sucks," a brilliant composition by the opera's composer, who merits equal praise for the melody's introduction as for the exquisite instrumental accompaniment. The grandeur of this scene is further accentuated by the fact that it was one of the most beautiful examples of scene-painting ever conceived. The artist's masterful use of color and light creates a stunning contrast between the tranquil waters and the dynamic movement of the ship. The curtain tails are visible at the edge of the photograph, hinting at the magical world that lies beyond. The success of "La Tempesta" was a collaborative effort between the artistes, composer, author, conductor, and impresario. Their collective exertions culminated in a truly artistic work that left audiences in awe. This production was noteworthy for its charming contrasts, its employment of modern art, and its freedom from the meretricious, glaring, and noisy elements that often marred theatrical productions of the time. The photograph serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and power of opera, a genre that continues to captivate and inspire audiences with its blend of music, drama, and visual artistry.
