EDITORS COMMENTS
Carmen Taunts Don Jose" is a captivating image from the Carmen Card Series 2, a collection of vintage opera photographs by Mary Evans Picture Library. This photograph, taken in 1875, depicts the intense and passionate moment between the titular character, Carmen, and Don Jose, the obsessive military man, in Georges Bizet's iconic opera. The opera, first performed in Paris in 1875, is based on the novella "Carmen" by Prosper Merimee. The story follows the obsessive love of Don Jose for the fiery and free-spirited gypsy, Carmen, who ultimately leads him to ruin. In this photograph, Carmen, played by the renowned soprano Emma Calvé, is seen taunting Don Jose, portrayed by tenor Jean de Reszke. The expression on Carmen's face is one of defiance and mockery, as she holds a rose between her teeth and flings it carelessly to the ground. Don Jose, on the other hand, is consumed with anger and frustration, his clenched fists and intense gaze reflecting his uncontrollable emotions. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its representation of one of the most famous moments in opera history. The image captures the raw emotion and intensity of the opera, transporting viewers back to the late 19th century and the world of Carmen and Don Jose. The photograph is a testament to the enduring power of Bizet's music and the timeless nature of the human experience, making it a must-have for any opera or music history enthusiast. The Carmen Card Series 2 is a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and collectors, offering a unique glimpse into the history of opera and the world of 19th-century performance. This photograph, in particular, is a stunning example of the passion and drama that defined the operatic world of the time and continues to captivate audiences today.
