EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century Paris, where opera reigned supreme. The image showcases a costume sketch for the character Lucia in Gaetano Donizetti's renowned opera, "Lucia di Lammermoor" performed by the talented Anne Thillon at the esteemed Paris Theatre de la Reinaissance in 1840. In this full-length portrait, we see Lucia standing with poise and grace, her blond hair cascading down her shoulders. Clad in a checked gown that exudes elegance and sophistication, she embodies the essence of operatic grandeur. The sketch captures her mid-performance as she sings passionately on stage, immersing herself in the emotional depths of her character. The vertical composition emphasizes both the classical music genre and its historical context. With only one person depicted - an actor embodying Lucia - our attention is solely focused on this remarkable woman who brings life to this iconic role. The illustration itself is a testament to artistic mastery; every stroke meticulously crafted to convey not just a costume but also an entire era's aesthetic sensibilities. From Western script annotations detailing specific design elements to intricate details of hairstyle and stage costume, this artwork transports us into a bygone era filled with cultural richness. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Universal Images Group (UIG), let us appreciate how it encapsulates the timeless allure of opera while paying homage to its historical roots within French society.
