The image showcases a meticulously detailed sketch for a guard's costume in Luigi Cherubini's renowned opera "Medea". Standing tall against a dramatic black background, this performer exudes strength and toughness as he dons a full-length cape and an imposing helmet. The artist, M. Phocas, has beautifully captured the essence of bravery and courage through this illustration. With dagger in hand, the guard epitomizes the unwavering dedication required to protect those within his charge. This period costume transports us to an era when music was intertwined with history itself. As we gaze upon this vertical composition, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that Paris Opera represents.
