EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Mademoiselle George in the role of St. Genevieve from Act II, Scene 3 of Attila by Pierre Corneille. Engraved by Charles Etienne Pierre Motte in 1822, this lithograph beautifully captures the essence of Marguerite Josephine Weimer, also known as Mlle Georges, a renowned French actress. In this portrait, Mademoiselle George stands tall and elegant, portraying the character of St. Genevieve with grace and poise. Her full-length costume is exquisitely detailed, showcasing her talent for bringing characters to life on stage. The intricate headdress adds an air of regality to her appearance. Mademoiselle George's portrayal of St. Genevieve embodies the spirit of a patroness of Paris and a shepherdess simultaneously. Her expressive eyes convey both strength and vulnerability as she captivates audiences with her performance. This photograph is a testament to Mademoiselle George's skill as an actress and serves as a reminder of her contributions to French theater during the 19th century. It is housed in Bibliotheque de l'Arsenal in Paris, France. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back in time to witness the artistry that unfolded on stage centuries ago. Mademoiselle George's portrayal reminds us that theater has always been a powerful medium for storytelling and evoking emotions within its audience.
