EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning handcoloured lithograph capturing the theatrical brilliance of the 19th century. This exquisite print is an illustration from the prestigious "Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris," published in Paris in 1844. The image is an adaptation of a theatrical production by Virginie Ancelot, staged at the Theatre du Vaudeville in 1843. Mlle. Adele Page, a renowned French actress, masterfully portrays the Duchess of Navailles in this scene from Madame Roland. The play, based on the life of Jeanne Roland, a prominent figure during the French Revolution, was a major success during this period. The intricately detailed lithograph, created by the talented Victor Dollet, showcases the Duchess's elaborate and elegant costume. The Duchess's attire, designed by Alexandre Lacauchie, includes a voluminous gown adorned with intricate floral patterns and lace, a luxurious fur shawl, and a magnificent diadem. The Duchess's regal bearing and expressive face convey her power and sophistication. The stage setting in the background provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the 1840s French theatre. The ornate curtains, gilded frames, and elaborate chandeliers create an enchanting atmosphere that perfectly complements the Duchess's striking appearance. This beautiful lithograph is not only a testament to the theatrical artistry of the time but also a valuable historical document that offers a glimpse into the fashion and culture of the 19th century. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the image to life, making it a must-have for any collection focused on theatre history, French culture, or 19th-century art.
