EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing costume for a Fury in the renowned opera, Iphigenia in Tauris, as well as other operas. Engraved by the talented artist Rene Gaillard around 1780, this exquisite piece of art is now part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. The costume depicted in the print is truly striking and evokes a sense of mystery and power. With its intricate details and elaborate design, it transports us to the world of Greek mythology where gods and goddesses reign supreme. Adorned with dagger motifs, paniers (hoop skirts), and snakes intertwined throughout the ensemble, it exudes an air of danger and intrigue. Created by Jean Baptiste Martin during the 18th century, this engraving perfectly captures every nuance of this extraordinary costume. Its meticulous craftsmanship highlights not only the skillful artistry but also pays homage to Gluck's timeless masterpiece - Iphigenia in Tauris. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and theatricality that defined opera during this era. It serves as a reminder of how fashion played an integral role in storytelling on stage while showcasing both creativity and innovation.
