EDITORS COMMENTS
Philippe-Amedee Roustan (1785-1847), a renowned French actor, is depicted in this handcoloured copperplate engraving as he portrayed the character "La Douceur" in the play "Le Tambour et la Vivandiere" by Jules-Joseph Gabriel. The image was produced in 1816 for a performance at the Vaudeville Theatre in Paris. Roustan's expressive face and elegant posture convey the depth of emotion and nuance that he brought to his role on stage. His character, La Douceur, was likely a romantic lead, as suggested by his tender expression and the bouquet of flowers he holds. The intricately detailed costume, complete with a flowing cape and three-cornered hat, further emphasizes the theatricality of the production. This engraving is taken from Charles Malos Almanach des Spectacles par K. Y. Z, published by Louis Janet in Paris in 1821. Almanach des Spectacles was an annual publication that documented theatrical performances and provided information about actors, plays, and productions. The handcolouring of this engraving adds an extra layer of visual interest and brings the image to life, transporting us back to the world of 19th century French theatre. Roustan was a popular and influential figure in the French theatrical world, known for his versatility and ability to captivate audiences with his performances. His portrayal of La Douceur in Le Tambour et la Vivandiere was undoubtedly a highlight of his career, and this engraving serves as a testament to his talent and the enduring appeal of live theatre.
