EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning costume design for a Fury in Jean-Philippe Rameau's opera, Hippolyte et Aricie. Created by the talented artist Rene Gaillard, this coloured engraving brings to life the intricate details of this fierce and powerful character. The Fury is depicted as a female figure adorned with an elaborate dress that exudes both elegance and menace. The dress features layers of flowing fabric, creating a sense of movement and drama on stage. Snakes intertwine around her body, symbolizing her connection to the underworld and adding an element of danger to her persona. In one hand, she holds a menacing dagger, ready to strike fear into the hearts of those who dare cross her path. Her expression is intense and determined, reflecting her role as a vengeful force seeking justice. This costume design perfectly captures the essence of the character, showcasing both strength and femininity. It highlights the creativity and attention to detail that goes into bringing characters from operas like Hippolyte et Aricie to life on stage. Displayed at Bibliotheque de L'Arsenal in Paris, France, this print serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of theatrical artistry throughout history.
