EDITORS COMMENTS
Les Coulisses d'Une Feerie" (The Backstage of a Fairy Tale), an enchanting illustration from the album "Maitres de la Caricature" (Masters of Caricature) issue 10, published in March 1901, presents a captivating scene of young ladies preparing for the performance of the Ballet of the Insects. The illustration, circa 1901, depicts a group of ladies in colorful short dresses, adorned with intricate fairy wings and antennae, as they gather backstage, ready to bring the magical world of insects to life. The ethereal atmosphere is further enhanced by the delicate use of pastel colors and the whimsical details in the illustration. The ladies' expressions convey a sense of excitement and anticipation, as they prepare to take the stage and enchant their audience with their graceful movements and enchanting costumes. The Ballet of the Insects was a popular theatrical production during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and this illustration offers a glimpse into the world of magic and wonder that these performances created. The intricate costumes and the attention to detail in the illustration transport us to a time when the imagination was the only limit to the possibilities of theatrical production. This beautiful and intriguing illustration is a testament to the enduring appeal of fairy tales and the magic they bring to our lives. It is a reminder that no matter how old we get, there is always a place in our hearts for the enchantment and wonder of a good fairy tale.
