EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases the renowned French bass, Nicolas Levasseur, in the iconic role of Don Juan from Gaetano Donizetti's opera "Dom Sebastien." The image, taken from the Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris, published in Paris in 1845, is an illustration by Victor Dollet. Nicolas Levasseur (1804-1867) was a celebrated singer of the French operatic scene during the mid-19th century. His powerful and expressive voice, combined with his dramatic stage presence, made him a favorite among audiences. In this portrayal of Don Juan, he exudes an air of seductive charm and mischievousness, embodying the infamous character's complex personality. The opera "Dom Sebastien," with a libretto by Jean-Francois Bayard and Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges, was first performed at the Théâtre de l'Opéra in Paris on December 18, 1843. The production marked the composer Gaetano Donizetti's return to Paris after a long absence, and it was a great success. The lithograph, produced by the renowned printmakers Alexandre Lacauchie and Louis Lasalle, offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Parisian opera scene of the time. The intricate details of Levasseur's elaborate costume, complete with a cape and a sword, further emphasize the prestige and importance of the role. This beautiful and historic image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Nicolas Levasseur and his contributions to the world of opera. It also serves as a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the Théâtre de l'Opéra and the impact of Gaetano Donizetti's music on the French stage.
