EDITORS COMMENTS
Sophie Arnould, a celebrated French soprano, graces this handcoloured copperplate engraving from the Galerie Francaise de Femmes Celebres, Paris, 1827. The image depicts Arnould in the iconic costume from her performance in the opera "Pyramus and Thisbe," composed by Jean-Philippe Rameau. In Act V, Arnould's character, Thisbe, dons an elaborate mantua dress adorned with voluminous hoop petticoats or panniers, frills, pearls, and ribbons. The intricate design of the dress is further accentuated by the contrasting colors and meticulous attention to detail in this engraving. Arnould's expressive face and poised posture convey the depth of emotion required for her role in this ancient Greek love story. The basket in her hands, a prop from the opera, adds to the authenticity of the scene. The farthingale, or vertical hoop skirt, supports the fullness of the panniers, giving the dress its distinctive shape. This engraving is a testament to the extravagance and grandeur of the 18th-century opera world. Sophie Arnould, known for her rebellious spirit and unique vocal abilities, captivated audiences with her performances in Pyramus and Thisbe and other operas. Her legacy as a renowned French soprano continues to inspire and captivate audiences today. This image, originally a portrait by Louis de Carmontelle, was skillfully translated into an engraving by Georges Jacques Gatine. The result is a stunning work of art that showcases the beauty and elegance of Sophie Arnould and the operatic world of the time.
