EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Apothecary comes with a syringe for Monsieur de Pourceaugnac" takes us back to the enchanting world of Moliere's theatrical masterpiece. The image showcases an exquisite colour engraving by Maurice Sands, dating back to 1669. In this scene, we witness the comical encounter between the Apothecary and Monsieur de Pourceaugnac. Dressed in elaborate costumes that transport us to 17th-century France, these characters come alive before our eyes. The Apothecary, a central figure in this play, holds a syringe as he approaches Monsieur de Pourceaugnac with mischievous intent. This print not only captures the essence of Moliere's work but also highlights the significance of costume and medicine within the context of theatre. Through their attire and props, both characters embody their roles effortlessly – one as a cunning doctor and the other as an unsuspecting patient. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of comedy ballets like "L'apothécaire". This piece serves as a testament to Moliere's genius in seamlessly blending humor with social commentary. With its rich historical value and artistic brilliance, this print transports us into a world where laughter reigns supreme. It is indeed a remarkable addition to any collection that celebrates fine art and theater alike.
