Scene from "I Puritani", at Her Majestys Theatre - Lablache and Fornasari
Scene from " I Puritani", at Her Majestys Theatre - Lablache and Fornasari, 1845. London stage production of an opera by Vincenzo Bellini. The characters of the two sturdy Puritans, Giorgio and Riccardo, with their martial ardour, their stern fanaticism, only softened in both by their affection for the daughter of the elder of them, are most dramatically elicited in the splendid duet " Suoni la tromba, " while the picturesque and appropriate costume, the dignified and expressive gestures, and the imposing figures of [Luigi] Lablache and [Luciano] Fornasari, heighten admirably the whole effect. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the renowned opera "I Puritani" at Her Majesty's Theatre in London, 1845. The image showcases the two sturdy Puritan characters, Giorgio and Riccardo, portrayed by the talented actors Luigi Lablache and Luciano Fornasari. Their martial ardor and stern fanaticism are beautifully juxtaposed with their affection for the daughter of one of them. The highlight of this splendid duet is depicted in this engraving - "Suoni la tromba". Lablache and Fornasari's expressive gestures, dignified postures, and imposing figures add to the dramatic effect. The costumes worn by these performers are picturesque and appropriate for their roles. This photograph not only reflects the skillful acting but also provides a glimpse into Victorian-era entertainment culture. It was originally featured in an edition of "Illustrated London News" a popular newspaper during that time. The image evokes a sense of grandeur associated with nineteenth-century opera productions while capturing the essence of religious themes prevalent in Vincenzo Bellini's work. The gesture-filled hand movements hint at Christian symbolism intertwined within the storyline. Preserved through time, this historic print serves as a testament to both artistic excellence on stage and cultural significance offstage. Its monochromatic charm adds depth to its portrayal of passion, devotion, religion, and performance artistry - all elements that made "I Puritani" an unforgettable theatrical experience.
