EDITORS COMMENTS
Muette de Portici," a historic opera by Daniel Auber, tells the story of Fenella, a mute girl living in the Italian town of Portici. In this scene from Act 1, Fenella's guardian, Elvira, questions her about Alfonso, the man she has been seen with in secret. As Elvira asks if Fenella knows Alfonso, the expression on her face reveals her growing suspicion. The photo print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, captures this dramatic moment from the 1828 production of "Muette de Portici." Elvira, played by a distinguished actress, gazes intently into Fenella's eyes, her hands on her hips as she awaits an answer. Fenella, portrayed by a young and innocent-looking actress, looks down, her eyes filled with a mixture of fear and defiance. Behind them, the ornate set design of the opera house can be seen, with its gilded columns and intricate details, adding to the grandeur of the production. The costumes of the characters are also noteworthy, with Elvira wearing a elegant, flowing gown and Fenella dressed in a simple, white dress with a red sash. The opera "Muette de Portici" was first performed in 1828 and was known for its revolutionary themes and dramatic music. The story is based on real events that took place in Naples in 1647, when a mute girl named Barbara was accused of seducing the Spanish viceroy and sparked a rebellion against Spanish rule. The opera's portrayal of the seduction and betrayal of Fenella by Alfonso adds to the tension and intrigue of the story. This print is a rare glimpse into the history of opera and the dramatic performances of the past. It captures the intensity and emotion of the scene, as well as the beauty and elegance of the production. The moment between Elvira and Fenella is a pivotal one in the opera, and this print serves as a reminder of the power of music and drama to captivate and move audiences.
