EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts the multitalented French actor, singer, and stage manager, Claude Marius, also known to English audiences as Monsieur Marius or Mons. Marius, in the role of Monsieur Favart in H.B. Farnie's English adaptation of Jacques Offenbach's operetta, "Madame Favart." The image, circa 1879, transports us back to the Victorian era and the bustling Strand Theatre in London, where Marius regularly graced the stage. Claude Marius, born as Charles-Claude Duplany, was a versatile performer who excelled in various genres, from opera to comedy. In this caricature, his expressive face and exaggerated features are on full display, capturing the essence of his portrayal of Monsieur Favart. The intricate details of his Victorian costume, complete with a top hat and cane, further emphasize the theatricality of the moment. Marius's collaboration with H.B. Farnie and the production of "Madame Favart" marked a significant moment in the history of Offenbach's operettas in England. The operetta, originally titled "La Grande-Duchesse de Gerolstein," was first performed in Paris in 1867 and was later adapted for the English stage by Farnie in the late 1870s. Marius's performance as Monsieur Favart brought the production to life, showcasing his exceptional talents as an actor, singer, and stage manager. This charming caricature offers a glimpse into the world of Victorian theatre and the captivating performances of one of its most beloved stars, Claude Marius.
