EDITORS COMMENTS
This image offers a glimpse into the set design for Acts 1 and 3 of Bedřich Smetana's opera "The Bartered Bride" (Prodaná nevesta), as it was presented in Paris in 1928. The production, which marked a significant moment in the opera's history, was a testament to the enduring appeal of Smetana's masterpiece. Smetana's "The Bartered Bride," first performed in 1866, is a unique work in the annals of opera history. It departed from the traditional format of the time, eschewing grandiose sets and elaborate costumes in favor of a more realistic and authentic representation of Czech folk culture. The opera's success hinged on its ability to capture the essence of the Czech people and their traditions, making it a source of national pride. In this photograph, we see the meticulously crafted sets for the opening and third acts of the opera. The image reveals a rustic, idyllic village scene, complete with thatched-roof cottages, a well, and a lush, green forest in the background. The attention to detail is evident in the intricate woodwork, the vibrant colors, and the authentic costumes of the villagers. The Paris 1928 production of "The Bartered Bride" was a landmark event in the opera's history. It marked the first time the work was performed outside of Czechoslovakia and helped to solidify its place in the international repertoire. The production's success was due in large part to its faithful adaptation of the original, with its focus on authenticity and realism. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and enduring appeal of Smetana's "The Bartered Bride." It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the opera was first captivating audiences and making history. The image is a testament to the power of music and the art of opera to transcend borders and bring people together.
