EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph captures the enchanting image of a woman dressed as the personification of Night (la Nuit) for a masquerade ball in late 19th century Paris. The elegant and mysterious figure wears a stunning costume adorned with intricately detailed stars and zodiac signs, evoking the vast expanse of the night sky. The woman's flowing gown, with its delicate fabric and graceful train, adds to the ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere. The woman's identity remains a captivating mystery, but it is believed that she may have been inspired by the famous soprano Marguerite Chapuy, who famously performed the role of Micaela in Bizet's opera "Carmen" during this period. The actress or dancer portrayed here may have taken on the role of Night for a theatrical production or as a personal costume for the grand masquerade ball. The lithograph was published by Martinet in Paris during the 1880s, by the renowned French lithographer Chatiniere. The meticulous handcolouring adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the already captivating image, making it a true work of art. The intricate details of the stars and zodiac signs, as well as the woman's elaborate costume, are brought to life through the skilled use of colour. This enchanting image of a woman as Night is a beautiful reminder of the magical and mysterious allure of the late 19th century Parisian masquerade balls, where the line between reality and fantasy blurred and the night held endless possibilities for wonder and enchantment.
